Actress Sylvia Sanchez and her husband, Art Atayde, have tested positive for the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID19).
Sanchez made the confirmation in an Instagram post on Tuesday. Sanchez said she and and her husband went to the hospital last week and were tested for COVID-19.
"On March 24, my husband and I were brought to Cardinal Santos (Medical Center) as I was having chills and he had cough and shortness of breath. We were made to take the COVID-19 swab test and since then, Art and I have self-isolated. A week later, we finally received the results and we both came out positive for COVID-19," she said.
Despite the diagnosis, Sanchez stressed that she and her husband are “getting better each day.”
Sylvia Sanchez is the third celebrity to test positive for the novel coronavirus after Christopher de Leon and Iza Calzado. De Leon has since been discharged from the hospital, while Calzado is now free from the virus.
