BREAKING: President Rodrigo Duterte has placed the entire Philippines under a state of calamity due to the 2019 coronavirus disease or COVID-19 outbreak. | DJEsguerraINQ

The virus, which was first detected in Hubei, China, in late 2019 causes mild symptoms such as fever and cough for most people but can cause serious illness such as pneumonia for others, especially older adults and people with existing health problems.

To prevent infection, authorities are urging people to practice regular hand washing, cover the mouth and nose when coughing and sneezing, and avoid close contact with those who show respiratory symptoms.
