Vice President Sara Duterte said that a viral photo of her father, former President Rodrigo Duterte, lying in a hospital bed is fake.
The photo spread on social media. It shows Duterte looking sick with hospital bands on his wrists. Many people started guessing about his health.
In an interview, Sara said the photo was probably edited and is not real. She explained that her father is not in a hospital and is still active.
She admitted that her father lost weight, but he is still healthy and can walk around.
Sara also told the public to be careful with what they see and share online. She warned against believing or spreading false news.
So far, the former president’s team has not released an official statement or a new photo to respond to the viral image.
