Divine Lee tests positive for COVID-19 despite staying home since March

Divine Lee revealed that she has tested positive for the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) despite her family staying at home since March.

She shared the news on her Instagram account with a series of Instagram Stories.

"Hi guys! To those asking - yes, I tested positive and asymptomatic. I'm all good so please don't worry. The kids and yayas are also all good," she wrote.

Divine said her husband Blake  also had mild symptoms and at first thought it was just from overeating ice cream. He is now cleared by the doctors.

Divine said they haven't seen other people since March 14.

"So obviously not person to person [transmission]. So please make sure you really be extra careful in handling everyday things from money, groceries and all," she wrote.

Divine said she will be coming out with a vlog in the hopes it can help people be more cautious with their actions.

"To think aning na ako and still got it," she said.

She said she's been waiting for clearance so she can donate her plasma to help COVID-19 patients. 

Other celebrities who tested positive for COVID-19 include Christopher De Leon, Iza Calzado, and Michael V. Veteran journalist and GMA News anchor Howie Severino also tested positive for the virus. â€”Jannielyn Bigtas/MGP, GMA News
