Financial Assistance for Covid-19 patients

Requested from SSS by M. Perales at 09:24 AM on Sep 07, 2021.

Perales 09:24 AM, Sep 07, 2021 

Hi, I would like to request for Covid-19 financial assistance. I contracted the virus last Aug. 11, 2021 where I noticed my symptoms. Aug. 12, 2021 was the day I had may RT-PCR test. The result came out on Aug. 13, 2021 and I was positive from it. Thankfully, I am part of those people who just contracted a mild case of Covid so I just took Vitamins C with Zinc, 1000mg daily. However, my children has been exposed to me. They were my closed contact and they developed pneumonia. Good thing was they didn't contracted the virus, even my partner. It just that I was in debt with their medicines.
