According to Sotto, he conducted antigen testing after experiencing mild symptoms.

“Posting para humingi ng pasensiya sa lahat ng naka-schedule ngayong linggo. Ayaw niyo rin naman siguro ako ka-meeting habang tumutulo sipon ko haha. Sunod pa rin tayo sa protocol, postponed/via Zoom muna lahat hanggang mawala ang sintomas (I’m posting this to ask for apology to everyone who has a scheduled meeting with me this week. I’m pretty sure you don’t like to have a meeting with me with a runny nose. Let’s all follow protocol. All my meetings will be postponed or be held via Zoom till my symptoms subside),” he said in a post.

The city government also said on Sunday, Dec. 3, that there will still be no Covid-19 vaccination in the city for the month of December due to the lack of supply of vaccines till the end of the year.
