Duque touts Philippines' small number of COVID19 cases

MANILA - The Philippines is among the countries with the lowest number of COVID-19 cases, its health chief said Thursday.

The disease, which originated in Wuhan City in Hubei province, China, has so far killed 182 people in the Philippines with 96 recoveries. In early March, the Philippine government denied entry to foreign nationals coming from countries with confirmed local transmissions of COVID-19.

Really need to Pat his own back Really?

here we go again

This administration knows nothing but gaslighting us.

DUQUE DID NO TOUTING... HE DEMONSTRATES... EXPRESSES THE NEED FOR THE WHOLE, TRUE PICTURE... YOU SHORTSIGHTED iSM !!!

And here ladies and gentlemen the honourable Secretary of the Department of Helpless/Hopeless.

Yes Mr Duque we have a small number of cases because we tested fewer people for now. Let’s just compare your data to other Southeast Asian countries. Where are we now? 😏 Act more and people should cooperate. stayhome covid19

Present the data then we compare it with our neighbors. Hmmm di ko naman alam na kelangan pala mag aral ng 10 more years ng medicine,mapakadalubhasa at maging secretary of health — para lang gawing maliit na bagay ang kinakaharap natin ngayon.

Sir naman, a little common sense lang. Yun lang. Baka naman pwede?!

How many tests have been done for a population of over 100mllion? Didn’t Sec. Duque proudly boast earlier that the Philippines was well-equipped to respond to COVIF-19 only to fall flat on his face with the lack of testing kits, facemasks, PPEs, ventilators, hospital beds?

Kung yan nga talaga ang totong figure. Haha duque talaga

We can’t afford a bigger number of sick people anymore. Praying for the sick to be cured and for the medical frontliners to have more strength. 🙏🙏🙏

Etong mga balasubas na admin kala nila ung lahat ng pinoy kagaya ng utak ng mga dds trolls nila! Ung bawat putak nila sabay clap clap ng mga uto utong trolls! Konti lang kaming may utak pero wag mo kaming gaguhin!!! Mga bugok na to!

🙏🙏🙏

Few tests made, low number of positive cases

Small number kasi limited testing pa lang. Duque naman.

Let's not count the eggs first...
