‘Wag kampante! Go urges vigilance despite downward trend in Covid cases

As the Philippines experiences a downward trend in Covid-19 cases this week, Senator Bong Go warned the public not to be complacent in order not to waste the collective bayanihan efforts and sacrifices of all Filipinos.

As of October 21, the Department of Health stated that the seven-day average of daily new cases in the capital region is already approaching the level seen prior to the March and April surge.

“Ayon sa DOH, dahan-dahan nang bumababa ang bilang ng mga bagong kaso ng Covid-19 sa bansa kung ikumpara noong mga nagdaang buwan na lampas sampung libo ang mga ito,” said Go.

“Walang tigil ang ating pagbabakuna at pagimplementa ng mga patakaran upang proteksyunan ang buhay at kabuhayan ng mga Pilipino,” the chair of the Senate health committee said.

The health department credited the improved numbers to the high vaccination rate in Metro Manila and the government’s Prevent-Detect-Isolate-Treat-Reintegrate strategy.

“Ngunit, tulad ng lagi kong sinasabi, huwag po tayong magpakakampante dahil hindi pa po tapos ang laban. Sumunod pa rin po tayo sa mga health protocols at iengganyo natin ang ating mga kasamahan sa komunidad na magpabakuna na,” Go warned.

He appealed to Filipinos to comply with necessary health protocols and cooperate with authorities in order to sustain the downward trend leading to pandemic recovery.

“Huwag nating sayangin ang pagsisikap ng ating mga kawani sa gobyerno, healthcare workers, frontliners, at higit sa lahat, ang kooperasyon at disiplina ng bawat Pilipino,” he added.
