Writer’s note: In yesterday’s issue, The Manila Times wrote: “Palace denies Tatad’s claim Duterte had mild stroke.” I never made any such claim. I reported on Monday, quoting Cabinet sources, what Cabinet Secretary Leoncio Evasco Jr. was said to have told some members of the Cabinet last Friday about the President’s health. Nothing would make me happier than to know the President never visited Cardinal Santos Medical Center, and never had any procedure of any kind. Mr. Evasco will have to deny ever having talked to his colleagues about the President’s condition. My first problem though is that my sources, both in Malacanang and at Cardinal, are not ready to disown their story. My second problem is that more people may want to believe what I write than what they hear from the presidential spokesman.
