Frankie Pangilinan asks, "How are our health workers?”
She explained her take on a headline from a news article pertaining to her statement, “It's a headline I didn't write based on a meme tweet I made that was followed up repeatedly by my actual fully composed thoughts and opinions but they wouldn't check that would they.”
the headline is misleading because it's based on a tweet which was based on a DISNEY MOVIE. here's my official position, which no one who had anything to say seemed to bother to check. pic.twitter.com/mgKjARWGnL

- i've never gotten this volume of commentary before.
- this isn't even political discourse it's just blatant negativity, the kind of energy we don't need to foster at this time. pic.twitter.com/eL37ysB75f
She explained that if people had taken the time to read the article rather than just skimming it, they would have understood her point.
to quote @caarltaylo, alam naman po namin na nandiyan po ang militar upang limitahan ang pag-galaw ng publiko upang maiwasan ang lalong pag-kalat ng virus. 'di naman kasi sinabi na 'di sila kailangan. basa-basa po muna kasi ano? ingat nalang po sa covid-19! salamat!
