I'd give them the benefit of the doubt. the thing is tests takes time and results needs to be properly analyzed. they also can't just rely on the information given by others (even if it is very reliable). if they didn't made tests DOH is wasting precious opportunity to save lives.
Time is of the essence. The number of average positive cases is not decreasing, even if they did some tests (presumably this month), they're not just wasting lives but
time.
'F as in falfak': PH gov't gets failing marks in COVID-19 response from these expertsAs per the article. We're up to being no.15 countries with a highest active cases and no.1 in ASEAN. Imagine that and it could be more worse...
LOL.
a lot of you still don't get it. the government don't care about you and what is the cutting edge and latest out there.
whatever it is that will be going inside the country, they are the middle man and they will have their nice slice of the pie (people's money). the visible part is tax and the invisible part is corruption.
the virus is not that deadly, that's why the government have time and priority for anti terror bill, to gain more..why is the junk that is inside the groceries are still in there that causes more deaths than COVID-19? because it is all about the gains. no one cares.
I agree that it is not deadly compared to other viruses but the alarming part here is it has no vaccine, no medicine, severe symptoms, incomplete knowledge of the virus, etc.. the infection rate is also incredibly high and can travel easily from person to person which can easily reach old people and unhealthy. doesn't it alarm you that 1800+ already died in a matter of months here in the Philippines? do you have statistics or stemate on how many people have died because of "junks" in a matter of months?
eat healthy, live healthy and have your supplements. your immune system is the one that really cares about you.
making yourself healthy doesn't happen in a matter of days and taking a supplement doesn't really help if you just start taking it and a lot of Filipino doesn't have the luxury to buy a supplementary medicine to boost their immune system or to live a healthy life.
