BREAKING: DOH on Friday said it has detected 16 new Delta variant cases in the Philippines, saying local transmission of the more contagious COVID19 variant has been confirmed.

Of the new cases, 5 were returning overseas Filipino workers from the United Kingdom and Qatar, while 11 others were local transmissions, Health spokesperson Undersecretary Maria Rosario Vergerie said in an online press conference.

Six Delta variant carriers are from Northern Mindanao, 2 are from the National Capital Region, another 2 from Western Visayas, and a lone patient is from Central Luzon, data from the DOH showed.The Delta variant is more contagious than the original COVID-19 strain due to the presence of the L452R mutation, which allows the virus to get past the immune system and spread faster in cells.

Hanga tlaga ako sa mga expert natin sa bansa lalo na sa doh mabilis nila makaditik ng mga variant viruses pero pagdating sa sa vaccine nganga,mga doctor lng yumayaman sa mga panahon na ito. Dami na silang binibilinh lupa at bagong bahay.

Sagad sagarang brain washing🙄 Napaka special na virus ampotah😒

Tangina ECQ yan matik. Yan lang naman alam gawin ng gobyerno saka ng DOH eh. Walang kwenta puta

Sinovac pa! 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

Politics pa more 😬😤

Another covid strain na mas contagious na naman? Paano pa tayo makakaahon sa hirap ng buhay.

OMG..MAS SAFE PADIN ANG WORKING FROM HOME SET UP PARA KABAWASAN NG TAO SA LABAS

Baka noon pa as early as Marso nandito na iyan! Pero ngayon lang nadetekt! 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♀️

Ano na😢😢. Kawawa nanaman tayo nito🤦😭

If only the govt invested on prioritizing the essential workers rather than senior citizens then people wouldn’t be this scared at all. Why would you vaccinate someone na asa bahay palage first over someone na nagttrabaho araw araw at lumalabas.

Wag ng paramihin! Everyone, practice MHS. Wear your facemask and faceshield properly. Practice physical distancing. Sanitize your hands regularly. Get vaccinated. Be responsible.

Of these 16 patients, 1 died while 15 others recovered, the DOH said.

🙏🇵🇭🌍

DrTonyLeachon How many more variants must enter our country before people are fed up with the clowns that run government? With proper management, so many deaths from COVID-19 could've been prevented. Di na rin kailangan mag-abang sa ayuda, pautang, donasyon. Tama na. Sobra na. Palitan na.

Anung nangyari sa mga restrictions and intensified border control nila?

The Fact na wala man lang ni kahit isa na tunay na 'Health Expert' sa mga iatf officials.🥴

Lagi kasi huling kumilos at magisip.

This is really bad news.

COVID19 appeared inChina, the country with a high number of pig factoryfarms.DeltaPlusVariant originated in India, the country with the highest numberof poultry factoryfarmWhat remains common is factory farms If it still remains common human life onEarth will not remain common
