President Marcos on health: Nothing seriousMANILA, Philippines — President Marcos appeared in another video yesterday, where he gave the public an update about his “good” health condition after being diagnosed with diverticulitis. Marcos said he lost weight as he was restricted to a soft diet for a few days. “I’ve lost weight as I was only allowed to have soup for a few days,” the 68-year-old President said. NBI may probe vloggerMeanwhile, the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) said it was investigating the spread of a fake medical record of President Marcos and may summon vlogger Jack Argota in connection with the incident. It is correct that people have a right to know the public health of the President, but that does not give anyone permission to release anything and spread fake news,” he said.
