PRESIDENT Rodrigo Duterte directed the Armed Forces of the Philippines and Philippine National Police to deploy their medical corps to augment the country’s healthcare capacity, as the number of healthcare workers infected with coronavirus continues to increase.

“Makikiusap lang ako na tulungan ang mga kababayan natin. Eh kung wala na akong mahila dito, hila doon, eh kayo na kasi wala na akong ibang maasahan,” he added. “At patuloy pa silang mangangalap sa mga probinsiya, sa mga services, Army, Navy, Air Force kung puwede pa silang magbigay ng mga nurses. At sa tingin ko po, Mr. President, sa mga darating na araw ay magkakaroon pa tayo ng mga nurses na puwede nating ipahiram sa mga hospitals sa Maynila,” he said.
