JUST IN: DOH’s explanation came after critics chided the government’s decision to place Metro Manila and other areas under a modified GCQ despite yesterday's highest single-day jump of cases in the Philippines. | GabrielLaluINQ

According to Health Undersecretary Maria Rosario Vergeire, the high number was a result of DOH finishing the validation of laboratory results which were released last week but were submitted late.“Out of these 539 cases, 109 lamang po ang fresh cases. Ang fresh cases ay mga kasong kakalabas lamang po ng laboratory results sa loob ng tatlong araw na nakalipas,” Vergeire said in the DOH briefing on Friday.

“Sila ngayon ay kino-contact trace, ina-isolate, at tini-treat na rin po natin. Ang balanse na mahigit kumulang na apat na daan ay mga late cases o ang mga kaso na ang resulta ay lumabas na noong nakaraan pang linggo, pero kahapon lang po na-submit ang mga laboratory results nila kaya kahapon lang din po na-validate ng epidemiology bureau ng DOH,” she added.

GabrielLaluINQ Bakit kasi you lump all data in one place kagit hindi tama ang paglagay ninyo....dahil.b sa testing

GabrielLaluINQ Lagi na kyo ganyn. You are threatening the public. You need to change

GabrielLaluINQ IMHO If the total count is high and the fresh count is low. It means MECQ failed to achieve control of infection. This means they practically scammed the city mayors to approve GCQ by delaying the data. Math is precise science, you can never lie about it.

GabrielLaluINQ Para Mukhang bumaba.

GabrielLaluINQ May 'fresh cases' na kahapon pero may backlog pa din? May express lane po ba?

GabrielLaluINQ galing sa backlog daw yung ibang cases, meaning marami tlga ang may covid...bakit di yun reflected sa mga data or tally sheet nila na inilalabas dati? meron ba?

GabrielLaluINQ Daily update pa kayo ng cases mga tapos biglang backlog lang pala yung mga yun. So minamanipula nyo pala yung datos?

GabrielLaluINQ Ah gets na namin. So Duterte’s decisions DONT FOLLOW COVID19 DATA.... The data is modified to FIT DUTERTE’S WHIM, OFF THE CUFF REMARKS AND DECISIONS 😷😷😷🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️😷😷😷

GabrielLaluINQ May 7k pa na di nalalog.
