(UPDATE) THE Department of Health (DoH) has not reached out to First Lady Louise Marie 'Liza' Araneta-Marcos to intervene in its cancer program or other health concerns.

The DoH statement comes after an official claimed that a 'colleague' dropped the name of Marcos to convince him to withdraw the graft complaint against Health officer-in-charge Maria Rosario Vergeire and six other officials.
