Six passengers from India have tested positive for COVID-19 when they arrived in the country before theHealth Undersecretary Maria Rosario Vergeire on Wednesday said the samples of the six COVID-positive patients have been sent to the Philippine Genome Center to determine if they were carrying the B.1.617 variant first found in India.
DOH said over 100 travelers from India who arrived in the country before the 15-day travel restriction was imposed on April 29 are currently under quarantine. "Kailangan lang natin paigtingin ang border control, na kahit makapasok man itong mga variants na ito, dapat handa tayo," she said in a media briefing.
They need more than 14days quarantine. The double variant is no joke. Kapag kumalat yan double variant satin dito GG na talaga Pinas!
Kasi DOH didn't act fast enough. Mahilig mag study. Pag-aralan muna. In a war, in a crisis situation, decisions must be done quickly.
'It is unclear why six other passengers have yet to be traced if they are supposed to go straight to a government-accredited quarantine facility upon landing.' ====
Yikes
late na naman kasi nag restrict. napaka incompetent ng mga putangina. pararamihin na naman ang cases tapos sasabihin maganda ang % natin sa recoveries. di ba mas ok na mas mababa ang cases?
