Post from Tio Moreno
“Inaasa nalang talaga natin sa vaccine?”
YES, YOUR HONOR!
The government has already set in place the policies by the IATF. Resolutions were even made available for public consumption. I don’t know if you’ve read all of those, but your honor where are you when the BAYANIHAN TO HEAL AS ONE ACT was enacted?
Did you sleep when the 275B was rolled out to help out the Filipino citizens on this coronavirus outbreak?
The National Government has also embarked on the biggest social financial aid program in history.
📍DSWD: Social Amelioration Program
📍DTI: Loans to MSMEs, a moratorium on rentals
📍DOLE: TUPAD and CAMP
📍DOF: Small Business Wage Subsidy, the moratorium on loan payments
📍DA: Loans to the agricultural sector
Are you aware that the government launched the PUBLIC-PRIVATE TASK FORCE T3 (test, trace, and treat) to significantly extend RT-PCR testing capacity? The reason why we have overtaken South Korea and Japan in terms of testing per population.
In line with that they also have procured and distributed the following:
- Coveralls: 1,685,661
- Face masks: 9,287,550
- Gowns: 1,644,123
- KN95 masks: 1,629,640
- N95 masks: 459,024
- Face shield: 1,107,011
- Gloves: 3,607,470
- Goggles: 940,623
- Non-invasive ventilators: 74
- Head caps: 1,744,855
- Thermal Scanners: 3,066
- Aprons: 742,600
- Sanitation tents: 10
And since the SARS Outbreak in 2003, previous admins did not care to boost our health care system & medical infra, this government was able to build facilities in just a few months that have
- Total bed capacity as of June 21: 13,108
- ICU beds: 1,298 (34% occupied)
- Isolation beds: 8,802 (37% occupied)
- Ward beds: 3,008 (35% occupied)
- Mechanical ventilators: 1,941 (19% occupied)
These figures may have changed now because the number of positive cases has been obviously increasing and our gov’t continues to build medical facilities as well.
The government already tapped the PNP to safeguard lockdowns and asked help from AFP to restrict mobility to lessen contagion, but still, rallies and protests are everywhere.
With that in mind your honor, we believe that the government has done its part and that is to ensure resources will be available both for the citizens and frontliners in the middle of a pandemic.
Your honor, what can save people from COVID19 is their adherence to quarantine protocols, plus the availability of the VACCINE. Yes, your honor, we are indefinitely waiting for a MIRACLE to happen because miracles come true.
And I heard you’re a BAR TOPNOTCHER, I hope you can give out better suggestions or recommendations to address the COVID19 crisis.
