ORANI, Bataan – Rep. Geraldine Roman on Wednesday announced that her 1st District office here will be temporarily closed after some of her staff were tested positive of the coronavirus disease.
“As much as we would like to reopen our district ofice sooner and continue to provide quality public service to our constituents in the first district of Bataan, we regret to inform you that we have been notified yesterday that some of our staff tested positive for Covid-19 after our routine swabbing last Monday,” the congresswoman said.
She said that some of her staff were infected with the virus despite being fully vaccinated and strictly following health and safety protocols. The office will be closed for disinfection and sanitation until further notice.
“Rest assured that we will continue to monitor the situation closely and strictly follow all health and safety protocols to protect our team and constituents. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and we appreciate your understanding, patience, and continued support,” Roman said.
“Maging ligtas at ibayong pag-iingat po sa ating lahat!,” she added.
The office serves Roman’s constituents from the towns of Dinalupihan, Hermosa, Orani, Samal, Abucay, and Morong while the law dividing Bataan from two to three districts will still be in effect on the May 2022 elections.
Dinalupihan and Morong together with Mariveles and Bagac from the second district belong to the newly-created third district.
