Four evacuees in Albay province who earlier contracted the COVID-19 virus have recovered, the Albay Provincial Information Office (PIO) said on Thursday, July 14.

In a statement, Albay PIO said Albay Provincial Health Office (PHO) officer-in-charge Estela Zenit said COVID-19-positive patients from Daraga and Malilipot towns showed no signs of COVID-19 symptoms like fever, cough, and common colds.

"Sa ngayon, patuloy ang ginagawang monitoring sa kanila at sa iba pang mga naging close contact ng mga ito," it said.

In June, a resident, displaced in the Gabawan evacuation center in the Municipality of Daraga, Albay, tested positive for COVID-19.
