“Not true patient has expired. In a critical condition though,” Duque said in a message to GMA News Online.
The Philippines has 24 confirmed COVID-19 cases as of Tuesday morning. Of the number, only one has died — a Chinese tourist last February. It was the first fatality outside China, where the virus originated. —KBK, GMA News
