Miriam Quiambao tests positive for COVID-19

Miriam Quiambao has tested positive for COVID-19.

On Tuesday, her husband Ardy Roberto shared a photo of Miriam holding an antigen test kit that indicated a positive result.

"Positive. But not pregnant this time. Covid naman ngayon," he wrote on Instagram.

[It's COVID-19 this time.]

Ardy said their house helper first tested positive but after isolating for 7 days, got a negative result.

Miriam, meanwhile, started to show symptoms a day or two after she had her COVID-19 vaccine and they thought it was just one of the side effects.

"Then a day or two after her symptoms appeared, I had symptoms but thought it might just be regular flu," he said.

"Miriam's antigen test was negative, and then we tested a day later and she was positive na."

Apart from Miriam, other celebrities who have recently tested positive for COVID-19 include Iya Villania, Ina Raymundo, Arnold Clavio, Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach, and Miss Grand International 1st runner-up Samantha Bernardo. – Kaela Malig/RC, GMA News
