According to the report, Russian vlogger Nikita Chekhov has tested negative for HIV or the human immunodeficiency virus, the Bureau of Immigration (BI) said Friday.
The report stated that BI Commissioner Joel Anthony Viado said the medical examination of the foreigner, carried out in close coordination with the Department of Health (DOH) on Thursday, confirmed that he was non-reactive for HIV, and he was also free from other related sicknesses.
The report said that the 21-year-old Russian vlogger, who went viral on social media for threatening to deliberately spread HIV while in the Philippines, was arrested in Quezon City on Wednesday.
The report added that the test results confirm the BI’s initial suspicion that Chekhov’s social media posts were rage-bait, intended to provoke fear and gain online traction. Viado assured the public that the BI continues to work closely with other government agencies to ensure that foreign nationals who abuse Philippine laws and cause public alarm are dealt with accordingly.
Additionally, this Russian vlogger is now facing deportation charges for undesirability, as his social media posts caused fear and panic among the public.
