Another of Vega's PUP colleagues who also had COVID is Jorge "Millin" Espat. He never went on a ventilator, but did have a few scary moments with COVID. Today he told us that COVID is a deadly serious threat:
Hon. Jorge "Millin" Espat, PUP Rep., Cayo West
"Everyone has a different reaction to the Covid. Also we have to be aware that this is a serious illness and we have to take all precautions to be safe, to safeguard ourselves and also be aware that we cannot leave things for the last. We have to take actions. The longer you take it, the more serious your condition. So, thankfully, I am not fully recovered yet, but thankfully I am here and I thank our good Lord to give me a second opportunity."
