There are fewer Active Cases (4K plus ) compared to last month (8K plus) according to DOH COVID site... And majority of the new cases are mild. Some people like to play up the numbers. Mababa lang ang testing rate sa PH kaya mataas ang positivity rate... Compare that to India.

The last few days saw a decline in COVID-19 infection rates, India on Wednesday again saw a substantial rise in fresh cases. While 9,629 coronavirus infections were reported countrywide in the last twenty-four hours, the active caseload has started to wane.


India’s active COVID-19 caseload currently stands at 61,013, a reduction of more than 4,000 cases that were reported on April 24, 2023, at 65,683. The daily and weekly positivity rates stand at 5.38 per cent and 5.61 per cent, respectively.

“The question we should be asking is why are we still implementing this alert level system when we are no longer under a state of public health emergency?” Concepcion said in a statement yesterday.

“We don’t have alert level systems when there are a lot of dengue cases. We warn the public and increase awareness so that they will be more careful,” Concepcion said.

Projections from the DDC suggest that the number of new cases this week will double from those recorded last week, particularly in tourist hotspots such as Bangkok, Phuket, Chiang Mai, and Chon Buri. As cited by the Department of Medical Sciences, XBB.1.16 is a recombinant or hybrid strain of BA.2.10.1 and BA.2.75 sublineages of the novel coronavirus. Although more transmissible and immune-evasive than XBB.1.5, there is no evidence that it causes severe symptoms.

India's Arcturus surge has already peaked and is on the decline... 7k new cases for today

Has India already beaten the super-infectious new Covid variant? U-turn in exploding cases is proof Arcturus is just another 'scariant', experts say after warnings of carnage in 'ground zero' with hospitals braced and the public told to wear masks again | Daily Mail Online

Prominent Covid experts today told MailOnline the U-turn in cases was proof that concerns over XBB.1.16, as it is scientifically known, were overblown.

They also insist there's no proof the strain is any more severe than others circulating.

Professor Robert Dingwall, who advised the Government on the virus during the pandemic, also told MailOnline: 'We have to stop jumping at every new Covid variant that comes along unless there is solid evidence that we have poor immunity to it.

'We need to be treating Covid like any other influenza-like illness.'

He added: 'The influenza virus also changes fairly regularly but it is not headline news.

'Public health agencies track the changes so that vaccines can be tweaked to match. Covid does not now require any different response.'

Professor Francois Balloux, a vocal Covid commentator throughout the pandemic, from University College London, also told MailOnline he was 'not worried' about the variant.

'I don’t think anyone should be panicking over it, wherever they may live in the world,' he said.

As long as we’re facing related Omicron variant lineages, replacing each other over time, we should be fine, whatever fancy name they may be given. Summer is coming.

'There’s no ugly variant raising its head and Covid should rank low among peoples’ concerns right now.

'As long as the Omicron lineage predominates - whatever variant - there will be cases, but no big nasty wave.

'If and when, the World Health Organization (WHO) decides that an emerging SARS-CoV-2 lineage should be given a new Greek letter name, things will become more serious.'
