Bong Revilla ends COVID-19 isolation

Senator Ramon "Bong" Revilla has finally ended his self-quarantine after winning his bout with COVID-19.

"Finally got to eat dinner with my family tonight after weeks of self-isolation. Salamat po sa lahat ng inyong malasakit at suporta para sa aking paggaling," Revilla said in a Facebook post on Thursday night.

In an earlier post, the senator announced that doctors advised him that he can finally be with his family "na walang pangamba whatsoever," after over a month of being away from them.

His wife, Bacoor City Mayor Lani Mercado-Revilla, also made a "thank you"  post, showing a photo of them hugging each other.

"Yes! Thank you Lord for healing my husband! The doctor said he can go back inside the house," she said.

Revilla was the fourth senator to have contracted and survived COVID-19. He was even rushed to the hospital earlier this month after developing pneumonia.

Last week, the senator said he already forgave the ill-wishers who wanted him dead.

Senate Majority Leader Juan Miguel Zubiri, and Senators Sonny Angara, and Aquilino "Koko" Pimentel III are also COVID-19 survivors. —LBG, GMA News
