Sinabi ni Vargas na sa kabila ng pagiging positibo sa virus, nananatili siyang asymptomatic.
Naka-isolate ngayon ang kinatawan ng lungsod ngunit tiniyak niya na ginagampanan pa rin niya ang kanyang mga tungkulin at responsibilidad habang nasa ilalim ng quarantine.
“I, however, ask for everyone’s prayer of healing and peace of mind—not just for me and those in quarantine and isolation, but also for our nation and the world,” sabi ng mambabatas.
