Duque said that as Fort Magsaysay is being prepared, the Athlete’s Village in New Clark City, Tarlac, will be used as a quarantine site for the Filipinos from the Diamond Princess.
Duque said the repatriation will push through by early next week as Japanese health officials are still conducting the necessary tests to verify if the Filipinos aboard the cruise ship have COVID-19 symptoms. “Na-aprubahan na yung repatriation plan, tuloy ang paghahanda sa Athlete’s Village. Gusto ng Japanese government makumpleto muna yung testing ng ating mga kababayan,” Duque said.
Health Assistant Secretary Maria Rosario Vergeire earlier said that based on initial figures, 52 Filipino crew members aboard the cruise ship tested positive for the COVID-19 coronavirus that originated in China. Meanwhile, Duque also urged local chief executives in Tarlac to support the government’s initiatives, noting that the Athlete’s Village is also a government-owned facility.asked the DOH to look for other quarantine sites that will accommodate the Filipinos from the coronavirus-hit Diamond Princess.“So ito, kinakailangang kompletuhin ang gamit at kakain din ng konting panahon. Nagrereassure kay governor hindi lang yung lugar niya ang pag-gagamitan.
