By Bianca Geli

Kapuso actress Angelika dela Cruz has a message for haters criticizing her community sanitazion efforts to combat coronavirus (COVID-19).

“Hindi porket hindi ako nag-popost ng pictures and videos wala kaming ginagawa," she wrote on her Facebook post on Tuesday, March 17.

"I understand na lahat tayo nag-aalala at kinakabahan kaya emotional tayo sa mga nangyayari sa bansa natin pero pakiusap sana bago kayo manira alamin nyo muna ang totoo and paglilinaw lang sa mga hindi nakaintindi sa post ko na.

“Hindi po kami nagbabahay bahay na parang election na kumakamay at nag bebesobeso sa lahat dahil totoo na we need social distancing at dapat daw wag masyado lumapit sa tao pero nag-iikot kami para mag-disinfect at nagta-trabaho kaming lahat sa barangay.”

She also showed a TikTok video for her critics to ease the tension.

Angelika's post might be a response to a report from PEP.ph about citizens complaining that she prioritized isolation instead of working with the barangay.
