The Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) on Emerging Infectious Diseases has tasked the National Task Force (NTF) Task Group Treat, through the One COVID Referral System, to utilize the Feasibility Analysis of Syndromic Surveillance Using Spatio-Temporal Epidemiological Modeler for Early Detection of Diseases projections on target beds and human resources for health.
“These projections shall identify health capacity needs required to lower health care and intensive care unit (ICU) utilization rates,” Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque said in a statement Friday.
Roque said the NTF was also directed to review and implement the recommended Prevent-Detect-Isolate-Treat-Reintegrate strategies to reduce the health utilization rates and augment the needs of human resources for health (HRH).
The government, he added, will identify target additional beds on a weekly basis to reduce health care and ICU utilization rates, determine and list specific health facilities and infrastructure, and operationalize how these beds become functional with adequate HRH and equipment.
Meanwhile, the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority has been assigned by the IATF to develop training and instructional materials to strengthen Covid-19 response at the barangay level.
