Palace: No return to ECQ amid rising COVID cases

By Prince Golez

Despite rising Covid-19 cases, MalacaƱang said the government is unlikely to declare an enhanced community quarantine this month.

“For the month of March, I don’t think it is called for,” Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque said in a virtual presser Monday.

Roque added that healthcare facilities in the country are now prepared to treat severely ill Covid-19 patients.

“Talagang datos po ang ating pinagbabasehan. Sabihin na nating dumami ang kaso pero nakikita natin na handa tayong gamutin yung seryosong nagkakasakit,” according to him.

“Inaatasan na po natin ang lahat, kasama na po ang ating lokal na pamahalaan, na hindi lang paigtingin ang ating minimum health standards, ipatupad na natin yung ating institutional isolation ng mga nagkakasakit, kinakailang paigtingin na natin ang ating tracing at i-isolate din natin ang mga tao na nagkaroon ng close contact at bigyan [sila ng] PCR test,” he added.

The Philippines recorded more than 3,000 new Covid-19 infections for the past three days.
