We’re one in this crisis! COVID 19 HITS YOUNG PIÑOL FAMILY MEMBER

A young member of the Piñol Family has tested positive of COVID 19.

Shane Matthew Piñol, 20, second child of former Board Member Soc Piñol, is now in a government isolation facility.

Shane is a frontliner in the provincial government’s anti-COVID Programs.

He is one of the government workers involved in the “Sagip Stranded” program of North Cotabato which rescued thousands of residents and OFWs from the province stranded in Metro Manila during the COVID Lockdown.

It was apparently during one of these rescue missions that young Shane contracted the virus.

Shane is a healthy young man and right after the tests showed that he was COVID Positive, he submitted himself for isolation.

Since he is employed by the provincial government, Shane lives alone in a house near the provincial capitol and was not in contact with other members of the family.

In fact, he was not present in the last gathering of the family on Sunday, Father’s Day.

A thorough contact tracing and tests are now conducted by our health authorities on people Shane was in contact with prior to his tests.

We all pray for Shane’s fast recovery.

We also ask his friends and acquaintances with who he had previously mingled with to come forward and submit to tests.

While this incident saddens us, it will not stop our family from fulfilling our commitment to serve the people.

May God bless us all!
