    Funds would be better spent on what Japan is doing ... offer it to companies to relocate their factories / production ...

    If I were pduts I'll extend EHQ for another 2 weeks. But this time it will be extra strict and those baranggay who will not implement stricter measures will remain in lockdown after the EHQ.

    We have to sustain the relatively good effort to contain this China virus.

    definitely may effect ung ECQ

    susceptible people (elderly) stayed home, people who can infect them (working age, students) stayed home

    DOH criteria for testing -- those with symptoms

    if you keep susceptible people from getting sick you have less people to test

    pero ngayon LGUs are starting mass testing sigurado madami ma-detect na positive

    Heard over the radio that the IATF will discuss with Du30 on which indusrty may be allowed to open after April 30... Hopefully a modified quarantine maybe in order...

    Total Or Modified Lockdown? Duterte To Decide; Is The Curve Already Flattening? | OneNews.PH

    Recent data suggests the Philippines is doing better in flattening the curve | ABS-CBN News

    An important data is the doubling time. The doubling time tells us how many days it takes for confirmed cases to double, based on the 7-day average daily growth rate. In short, the shorter the doubling time, the steeper the slope, the larger the number of cases within that span of time. The doubling time in the US for example is around 4 days. Which means that if the doubling time does not lengthen in the US, they would see an increase of 100,000 cases every three days. The doubling time in the Philippines started around four, but now averages at least two weeks (14 days). The latest doubling time is now almost 16 days! Remember, the longer the doubling time, the earlier we can flatten the curve.

    while the elderly and those with co-morbidities stand twice as much as dying from covid than the younger and those without co-morbidities,
    the bottom line is,
    everyone and everyone, are susceptible to covid.

    our criteria for testing are more stringent than those of other countries'.
    that is why, our morbidity and mortality statistics are, in my opinion, artificially higher.

    Metro Manila quarantine 'very effective' at checking COVID-19 - UP think tank | ABS-CBN News

    Prof. Mahar Lagmay of the UP Resilience Institute (UPRI) said the university's Institute of Mathematics submitted research on Saturday showing that the number of new infections per day in the National Capital Region appears to have already reached its peak.

    I say extend it for another 2 weeks Everything will be for naught kung I-lift agad.

    If modified then owners of factories are mandated to do rapid testings on their workers but still half the manpower lang. Workers should be tested once a week.
    Kung pwede sana meron housing para hinde na lumalabas.

    Malls should remain closed, restaurants maintain status quo, takeout and deliveries only.

    Mga gyms and the likes. Cinemas closes pa rin lahat.

    BPOs half manpower since marami namana na naka set up sa WFH. And again rapid test once a week for everybody.

    Then curfew adjust na gawin na lang 10pm-5am

    Bawal pa rin lumabas senior citizens. Yun ginagawa sa pelengke ganun pa rin.

    New method of testing for coronavirus in under a minute, by Israeli tech - The Jerusalem Post




    The new method is based off a breathing machine developed by Israeli companies Next-Gen and Scentech Medical, and is similar to the breathalyzer machine that police use to find ethanol contained in the blood. Using a similar method to that of the breathalyzer, patients breath into the device, which should be able to distinguish between thousands of gas compounds in the breath, isolating that associated with the virus, allowing for a quick and simple diagnosis.

    yes i am aware anyone any age can be infected

    even young people can die of covid




    i'm just looking at the overall effect of ECQ

    since limitado ang galaw ng tao, na-slow down ng ECQ ang pag kalat ng virus

    kahit madami pasaway kahit papano malaki parin ang effect ng ECQ compared sa pag hindi nag implement ng ECQ

    --

    since very strict ang testing criteria natin (testing only those with severe symptoms), dahil sa ECQ, those who would have developed severe symptoms if infected didn't get infected

    coz:

    1. wala pasok mga estudyante so hindi sila nahawa at inuwi ang virus at nahawa mga magulang at lolo't lola nila

    2. wala pasok karamihan ng empleyado (or WFH) so hindi sila nahawa sa trabaho at inuwi ang virus at nahawa mga magulang nila

    so na-kontrol ng ECQ ang pagtaas ng bilang ng nag test positive based on DOH testing criteria

    pero ngayon na-loosen na ang testing criteria

    i think LGUs will now conduct mass testing to find and isolate asymptomatics (aside from those with symptoms)

    dadami ang positive count natin

    Hopefully, there will be really cheap rapid testing devices available by then ... or subsidized by the government? ... agree with the guy who resigned about continuing with the infrastructure projects though ... just to get the economy jump started ... a lot of people have no income ... it's not like the virus is going away soon ...

    Dapat talaga tinuloy eh, walang traffic. Housing on site dapat yun mga workers while continuing doing the projects.

    At least during ECQ eh control mo pa yun mga tao and surorundings ng project site. Mahirap na ngayon pag modified lockdown. Factor in na mga movements na mga tao doon sa project site.

    Meanwhile in Pasig...



    Vico Sotto


    We will continue to do our best with social amelioration. But if we want quarantine to end faster--

    TESTING TESTING TESTING.

    We now have 6 active testing booths, strategically placed in our SuperHealth Centers.

    Malapit na maubos ang backlog natin sa "PUI". Pati exposed health workers natin ite-test din ("Let's keep them safe so they ca. keep us safe")

    Salamat sa tulong, Deeco Electronics at Dee Hwa Liong Academy.
