MANILA - Three COVID-19 patients in Quezon City were sent home following their test for the virus due to lack of space in facilities, Mayor Joy Belmonte said Sunday.
"They're all confirmed positive," she told ANC, adding, "They are not admitted. So, that’s a little shocking and a little disturbing, I think." Belmonte shared that the lack of space in health facilities led to the current protocol of sending patients home while waiting for their test results. It was not immediately clear if the 3 patients are among the city's 44 cases of COVID-19 as of Saturday afternoon, according to the Department of Health's website.

Wtf!
lalong kakalat kung pinauwi nyo
Narinig ko yung 3 nag test ng positive pero hinayaan parin ng mayor nila na umuwi.. saan ang common sense doon
In this case, if I would be the patient and will be sent back to our home, I rather do euthanasia. In order not to infect my families and other people 😢
In short hindi ready ang bansa natin sa ganitong problema. Prayers to everyone
Excited na ako bukas sa bagong gagawin ni officialqcmayor
Diba dapat i- quarantine sila separately para di na makasalamuha ang hindi infected?! MassTestingNowPH
Sabi pa naman ng government na ready sila para don😂
Mga taga quezon lipat na ng Pasig.kasi don siguradong di kayo pababayaan ni mayor vico.doon tayo sa hindi pakitang tao at totoong may malasakit sa bayan.
Bakit pinauwi pa?may possible na mahawa pamilya niya o ibang taong makakasalamuha niya😌yan ba ang solosyon ni mayora joy?kung wala namang space sa hospital bakit di na lang dinala sa ibang bahay na wala siyang pwedeng mahawa.tas doon sila imonitor.
I live near two hospitals, maya't maya rin ang daan ng Ambulance since Saturday morning which didn't happen before. I counted 10 last night and more than 20 today as of 5pm, as I can recall. I think talamak na ang COVID19 coronavirus sa Pilipinas covid2019philippines

Mayor kahit man lang sana sa hotel niyo sila iquaranrantine. Tulad sana ng ginawa ni Isko sa ilang hoteo sa manila. Kaya naman siguro ng QC funds yun eh
officialqcmayor joy belmonte, is this news really helping? Porvide isolation units!! U dont go telling people na pinauwi nalang dahil wala ng space sa hospital. U need to make a solution, its your job to provide solution. Diba?
Mayor kahit wala symptom pero positive,kilangan po yan isolate kasi po mkakahawa yan Maari silang gumaling pero yong nahawa nila maaring hindi.Pano yan masusugpo.
Pde naman siguro sa isang napaka spacious na sports arena sila ilagay. Maglagay lng ng partitions gaya ng nasa hospital. Tapos dun na mga medical equipments kung pde. Magagawan naman ng paraan yan siguro.
Sana may specific area para sa mga patient.
CzeannR Ayan na DOH sge lang hayaan lang muna natin no? Dagdagan pa natin no? Okay bye.
Seriously?! officialqcmayor
Oh my hundreds of covid cases pa yan ganyan na what more? Hello government where is the budget? God bless Philippines 🙏🙏🙏
Kung from urban poor dapat di pinauwi. Isolate them in a designated area. They live in small spaces, siguradong may mahahawa. Ang tagal naman mag-isip ni Mayor Joy. You need to think fast!
They sent them home kasi negative na daw. Pero hindi dapat ipa uwi ng bahay muna, e quarantine muna sa malayo at peaceful na lugar, maraming empty space sa province area na wala masyadong Tao. Dun muna dapt sila kaysa ibalik sa bahay nila. Be safe guys!
DOHgovph DILGPhilippines
🙁
So paano Kung may mahawa? Paano kung Yung nahawaan nakahawa sa labas, at Yung nahawaan sa labas nakahawa din NG iba? Holy God... In short pinalala niya Ang sitwasyon. Ipinakalat Niya Ang virus..
Hotels to isolate patients? Tents in an open area not ACCSBL to PPL but close enough for ambulance & doctors. GOVT must provide water, toilet, disinfection, hygiene, food, medicine, ventilation (dry season), calls & internet so they can still talk to family? officialqcmayor
Asymptotic COVID-19 patients are the most dangerous because they can be super spreaders! How can you prevent or trail each fomites they make!
BoBong Mayor! DILG should Looked into this matter. Period.
So walang initiative si Mayor Joy? Can't she think bigger? Lels😛
There’s nothing wrong with what they’ve done. A person can be positive without having any symptoms. The hospital can only take those who need medical intervention. They are also doing that here in the US.
MarMar13212200 Eto na ba ang simula. Palakasan na lang ng immune system at magdasal na di dapuan ng virus.
Grabe mayor puro i think i think kakagigil
So what's the use of quarantine?
Reckless dapat sa bahay ni Joy Belmonte pinauwi
Nyak....? Edi wow walang silbi quarantine kung ganyan,,, mag sarisarili n lng ng pag papagaling? Ade napakagaling mag pasya at mag isip ng gumawa nyan!!!!
Poor man..maybe if they are known person it won't happen like that supposed they should full medical attention...may Allah bless them😎😎😎
This is how traditional politician handle the crisis..very poor..i cant find enough words in dictionary to describe you mayor...
Sana i make sure nila na mag self quarantine at hindi lalabas yung mga pinauwi nila. Hindi na talaga nakakatuwa si Joy Belmonte.
ha?huh
officialqcmayor wag ka na magtatanga-tanga. Ikaw na mismo ang nagpapakalat ng virus.
Paanu yun ? E di magka kalat pa yun ng sakit? Dapat alam kung sino para alertó ang tau na mag Ingat sila ay ng di mahawa😭
yekamazing
chadrhic ajcadsi puñeta talaga
Wow! Yan ang solution nyo Mayora Joy Belmonte!? Magisip kayo ng solusyon! Lack of space!? You convert venues to be a COVID19 center. Nasasayang taxes ng QC sayo!
I read the the article first. Ikaw? 🤔
Sana nmn po pina locate na ninyo sila. Few days back sabi po nyo may hotel gawing hospital, status po? Should you sound this alarm before coordinating w DOH? True hospital nagpa.uwi but w this info naging QC public health issue na, what's next po?
Wala na dapat PUIs and PUMs, lahat dapat iconsider na Covid positive. Kaya mababa pa yung positive cases natin pero talagang mataas kasi di sinasama yung mga PUIs. Sasabihin lang kapag lumabas na positive sa Covid. Pero paano kapag namatay na di pa lumalabas yung result?
ha underprepared. Did they not think about that hospitals might become full? no plans if that happened? yikes. 😱
DZMMTeleRadyo It is a CRIME, Ms Belmonte. STOP IT! momblogger dzbb inquirerdotnet rapplerdotcom piaranada
Insanity! Sige wag ng isipin ang hirap nun mga patient but it will spread sa buong barangay nila. Wla kayong paki. Paano kung umabot na sa matataas na bakod ng bahay ninyo. Ang daming stadium dyan. Akala ko ba yun mga hotel gagawin ospital ng presidente. Do it now
Same in australia.
amethystxmw Uwi na lng daw kayo at spread sa family at neighbors nyo yung virus .The more the merrier yata ang peg nila Bibigyan naman kayo ng relief goods at si Mayor Joy mismo ang mag aabot 😪
Mayor talaga sabaw walang sense of urgency. Mas importante yun mamigay ng safeguard at alcohol at mag pa print ng eco bag na May pangalan at ma kunan ng media
Oh no. Why? Shouldn't Govt, DOH already do a makeshift hospital like Italy. Quezon city is one of the densely populated city.
Hundreds palang yan, nagpapauwi na. Paano na kaya kung umabot ng thousands. Nakakatakot talaga magkasakit dito sa Pinas.
😔
Ang galing ng mayor ng QC saludo kami sa inyo. 🙄🙄🙄🙄
naku sana bantayan eh lack down ang area ng positibo hanggang gumaling huwag palabasin kong eh home quarantine para di na makahawa pa ng iba.
Anyari eh bakit pa may home quarantine kung ang urban poor eh positive s virus ano pa kuwenta ng mga pagsusumikap ng mga police at health worker natin na mapigilan ito eh pauuwiin din pala pag natapos ang test at positive
What happened to the quarantine hotels that QC was supposed to get exactly for cases like this?
Pag sa presscon ng doh lagi handa wala daw ipag alala bat ganyan
What?
DZMMTeleRadyo Only if they are asymptomatic, strictly in isolation and will be regularly monitored, i think its okay dahil baka mas malinis/hygenic pa sariling bahay kesa sa kalagayan ng mga ospital plus para hindi mahawa o makahawa sakit sa ospital... example is Senator migzzubiri
And mayor JoyBelmonte officialqcmayor 'thinks this is a little disturbing'. Mayor you are beyond unbelievable! FYI, THIS IS ALARMING AND NOT JUST A LITTLE BIT DISTURBING. May hotel for PUI pero po yung positive ay pinauwi ninyo. Remind me again what is our goal?
Ctto Spread the cause!!!
arolanie
I really thought QC is one of the richest cities in PH. How come til now no back up plan. Yes, hotel was converted for PUI/PUM but there should be more since the city has a lot of hotels. It’s difficult but it’s also a matter of negotiation,collab&political will.
Sharing two articles which contain CDC guidelines for PUIs/confirmed cases on home isolation or quarantine. Not sure if DOH has established similar guidelines but if you could please help inform the public...
Exactly what happened in China! Galing!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
This is too much!! 😢 walang sense ang lockdown kung di kayang ma accommodate yung mga infected talaga ng virus. Hindi talaga handa ang bansang 'to. Imagine, hundreds pa lang cases natin di na kayang gawan paraan Heartbreaking. :((
What happened to what Panelo was saying “handa ang govt natin” and that we have protocols? They even say we have funds but we accept from POGOs, they only acknowledge Chinas & POGOs help, what about the other countries who donated, deadma lang kunyari para sikat China lang😳 why?
simula na mgkalat ng virus! imbis na i-isolate pinauwe! malaking pgkakamali yan! hnd porke mlkas resistensya nila ay safe n. pno ung mhhwahan nila? isa p hnd nmn lahat ng bahay may kwarto! at hnd lht ng bahay may CR!
DOHgovph WHO WHOPhilippines The worst case scenario is when all Hospitals in Metro Manila got overwhelmed by covid19 patients! This scenario should have been taken with advance planning and preparation! Don’t wait until we’re all doomed! WAKE UP DOHgovph and SecDuque
makonsensya sana mga corrupt! pero tingnan niyo up to now hindi tumutulong mga kurakot! sarili lang iniisip!
This is terrible! They could die there! Worse, they could infect more poor people! 😭
Bakit hindi itong si Joy Belmonte ang warningan ni Duterte? Kapag kasing bobo nya ok lang.
Bakit hindi sa ospital pra properly monitored? Or dalhin dun sa manila or pasig wherein they ordered motels/hotels to be used for this cases!
Buli n nga memorial plans baka magka ubusan
BAD IDEA JoyBelmonte In fact, this is a stupid decision to send home a Covid_19 positive patient 😡😡😡😡
Bakit pinauwi? May gagamot ba sa kanila sa bahay nila?!
Kung wala kayo space, gamitin nyo muna mga schools, malls and other buildings. Pansamantala lang naman. Kesa pauwiin nyo yan, lalo lang yan makakahawa
Pinauwi ng hospital? Apakagaling!
That's why dapat meron na talaga lugar ang mga municipalities at cities kung saan nila dadalahin yun mga pasyente. We surely underestimated the whole Covid-19 pandemic.
Sana hinatid sila pauwi hindi pinaglakad, wala sila place kasi they can't afford pero pag may pera syempre i admit. Ganyan ang kalakaran satin realtalk lang. In d end of the day kawawa talaga kaming mahihirap
Whaaaaattttt?
1 week na yung quarantine. Before that madami na lumalabas na cases sa QC. Sa laki ng QC expected naman na di kakayanin to quarantine/isolate all positive cases in the hosp. Dapat may plano na. Wala eh, ngayon pa lang sya nagiisip ng gagawin. Wait niya makahawa. Incompetent
Dba laging pinagsasabi dati ng DOH ang handa na ang Pinas sakaling may magpositive? Bakit ngayon nagkakaganyan? Anggulo nyo naman na nasa Governo!
This is stupid. Should not have sent home. Lahat ng family nila sa bahay mahahawa tapos kapitbahay, barangay.....and so on.
3 silang positive hindi ma-accommodate sa quarantine facilities kasi wala. Walang isolation facilities kaya back to community ang virus, ganun ? Sa laki ng Quezon City at inaasahan mo na ginagawang solusyun ng gobyerno, pag ganito, ma-contain kaya spread ng virus?
Aren't there designated hospitals already?
Akala q b handa ang DOH, anyare?
Parang belmonte, ok may Covid +, taga congested area, let me see muna kung may room pa sa hotel nq converted as quarantine facility, blah blah blah. See, how sloooow to decide. Taga congested area po. Liitle disturbing ka pa ba.
sabi ng mayor ng QC di deserve ng mga kritiko nya ang mga project nya...yan bha gusto nyong public servant? pag dika pabor sa kanya wla ka..
DZMMTeleRadyo Pinag iisipan pa ni mayor anu gagawin, in the meantime yun positive na case na yun may hinahawahan na o nahawahan na na bago?! Magaling talaga.
ano clear plan nyo sa tatlong patient?maburyong biglang maglalabas,ano gagawin nyo?wala na ngang balita dun sa nakatakas dba?Covid_19 COVID19PH JoyBelmonte
covid 19 tlga ang nag expose kung gaanu ka poor ang bansa pagdating sa health program...
Paano kung gumala pa yung 3 na positive? Paano kapag sa sama ng loob o sa pagiging desperado nila, imbes na mag quarantine sila eh naghasik sila ng virus?
Bakit ganon? Eh wala ba magawang alternative isolation place si Mayor? Bakit ang ibang mga LGU nakakagawa ng ganon?
Sige, ikalat pa more.
Hundreds pa lang cases natin pero ganyan na ang response ng gobyerno. How much more if umabot na ng thousands?Asan yung sinasabi nilang the DOH is ready?Saang aspeto tayo ready?Pasikat pa tayo sa pag gastos ng P32 million na cauldron. pailawan nyo bka gumaling lahat ng may covid
You're definitely the JOY who makes us all mad. 😡 Mayor Belmonte
Walang bang back-up plan? Forseeable naman ang ganitong situation. Kung nakuha ni Mayor Vico iconvert yung hotel as temporary health faciltiy sa Pasig bat di rin gawin sa QC.
Nangdumami lalo yung magkacovid. Mayor anu na?
😭😭
Thinking of options?! Mayora, no time to think. Action na.
Ay. Wow. Ikalat pa po natin ang virus no?
The government must do something about it! Help the affected people give them the right medications...
Hindi lahat ng positive ng COVID-19 dapat e hospital, they need those space for the severe cases or critical. Hindi cguro pinauwi ng kanila yun hehe baka hinatid naman sa kanilang mga tahanan ng mga health workers.
DZMMTeleRadyo Suggestion po and sana umabot sa kinauukulan: Pwedeng gawing pinaka Covid area ang Philippine Arena sa Bulacan. Lahat ng isolated sama sama. Malaki, high ceiling, situated sa isang isolated area. Para di na gamitin mga hospital.
Mayor Mayor nasa ka?
😔😔😔
Sana sa bahay na lang ng mga mayors or barangay captains sila pinatira.
Owo mayor galaw2 din 😭
DZMMTeleRadyo Can they not be transferred to another hospital? Grabe naman
