State-owned Philippine General Hospital asks for donations of masks (both surgical and N95), 70% alcohol, face shields, and surgical gowns for its health workers

As the country continues to curb the local spread of the coronavirus disease, several health groups— including frontliners themselves— are appealing for medical supplies amid dwindling stocks of the products.

In a statement, state-owned Philippine General Hospital has asked for donations of masks , 70 percent alcohol, face shields, and surgical gowns for its health workers. The University of the Philippines College of Medicine's Student Council also appealed for health supply donations for its PGH interns on duty.

The Office of the Vice President has likewise called for donations of protective gear and equipment— including googles, gown, head and shoe covers, and N95 masks— for health workers. COVID-19, now considered by WHO as a pandemic, has infected more than 156,000 people in 142 different countries and territories, including China. Over 5,800 people have been killed by the disease as of Sunday, according to the Johns Hopkins University's global tracker.Latest from this section

Walang pakialam administrasyon. Kasi dapat day 1 palang kayo na ang priority sa medical supplies

Mas kelangan ng pera ang malakanyang intelligence fund kesa pondohan ang UP PGH

The government can and should coordinate with face mask and alcohol makers to expedite orders for our health workers. May statement na ba from the palace o hindi na sila kikilos kasi may donation na ang private sector? TraitorInThePalace OustDuterte IntelFundsForHealthPH

Imemessage ko lahat ng online shop nagbebenta

Sabi ng govt dami funds doh. Tapos may additional pa. Paksyet.

We need to help.

For all the corrupt listen to this. You have been taking money for years and years. It’s time for you to step up and anonymously donate.

Hayun na nga donate tayo ng donateng mask sa china eh tayo man wala! No 1 hoarder ng mask ang ‘Malacañang!

If the government hadn't cut the health budget, there would've been ample supplies.

People please stop hoarding masks and alcohols. Just stay at home and self quarantine. We in the frontlines are having a hard time acquiring this. And to think we are always facing patients.

I'm sure kung di nagkroon ng malwakng hoarding ng face masks & other medsupplies, di ganito klaki prblema. Yung clerks/interns dyan, resourceful mga yan, sila mismo bumibli ng sarili nilang med supplies fr their own money. Nag aambag2 pa mga yan para sa mga labtest ng patients.

Juiceko DOH. Order masks from Taiwan! My god!

Baka naman meron pa tayo jan DickGordonDG philredcross ambilis nyong namigay sa Wuhan, pakidalian naman yung sa PGH.

people solely blaming institutions for this but not considering that there’s shortage because people hoarded a lot for themselves in the first place?

Hoi online sellers of masks, give it to these people

No more supplies. If some have spare medical supplies, hope they can donate it to our frontliners. They need it the most 🙏😷

PGH is not the only one...

This is the very reason why we should not be greedy Now the ones who really need them, sila ang nawalan. Hoarders, utang na loob, ilabas nyo yung mga hinoard nyo. Also, sana suppliers and manufacturers of these supplies can do something? Para din naman sa atin lahat to.

Kung ang sarili nating gobyerno hindi matulungan ang PGH, papaano pa kaya yung mga mas maliit na public hospitals. Nasaan ang National government!!!

DOHgovph

Country'

I wil donate my single cent if i could, now rich ppl wake up and give for our countrt

DickGordonDG baka may naitatatago pa kayong supply diyan na ipamimigay niyo lang sa China. Nagkaubusan na ng facemasks, face-palm na lang ang marami sa Gobyernong ito.

WHAT

EstelleSelfie PANELO: “‘Yung ating social deparment, service departments meron nang hinanda na mga packages. Daan libo na nga ‘yung naka-ready sa kanila, ‘yung mga packed food. Lagi tayong naka-ready,” Ganun ba?...Anyare sa Hospital?

Nasaan ba ang gobyerno?

Kawawang pinas, pamunuan ka ba naman ng siraulo, ganyan kahihinatnan ng bansa NGANGA😭😭😭

Ladies ang gentlemen. The effect of corruption. 🤷‍♂️

Stay home!!!! Forget work!

Oh wow! Bakit nagkaganito?

Reallocate some intelligence funds to the health funds in this middle of healthcare crisis 🗣

Kapag ang gobyerno na ang nanlimos, paktay na. Tsk Pero di pa rin ito kasalanan ng gobyerno at admin. Walang naninisi sa kanila huh mga dds. Lalo na't wala naman kaming ambag di tulad nyo. 🙄

Tagging DickGordonDG

punyeta may nalalaman pang pagdodonate ng mask sa China and Pilipinas ngayon Pilipinas na ang may kailangan wala maibigay pati mga kapulisan na nsa checkpoint wala ding magamit!!!

I divert nmn sana ung funds na sobrang laki, maawa ka nmn sa mga bumoto syo

Hi DickGordonDG Wala talaga kwenta ang philredcross mo

tanyaandreah Ang bansang nakaraos sa donasyon. Stay safe guys..

It only shows how poor our health care system. Hindi kasi priority ng govebyerno mas concern sila sa BBB program. In other countries affected by this virus don't have problems with this. nakakahiya.

this wouldn't happen if we have the 10billion budget for our healthcare!!! kakaloka

Release those intel funds now

Akala ko ba ready ang govt natin to face the 'virus' scare Bakit humihingi p ng donation ngayon?

And the downfall begins.... the next Venezuela

Asking for donations like there’s no money elsewhere.

walang dds dito sa replies section?

DOHgovph DickGordonDG help please 😭

What is the govt doing? How come it cannot supply it's own hospital?

Singilin nyo si TULFO! BernaPuyat Punyeta!

Tang ina mga politicong yan

ruthcabal15 Got a pack of 20 N15 masks 😷 just kickin in my hotel 🏨 room

Lol

Kahit pa sabihing may pera naman pero walang suppliers, It should never be an excuse. Nakapagbigay nga agad ng 58 boxes ng medical at emergency supplies ang gobyerno sa China, pero itong needs ng mga hospital ilang buwan ng kailangan, hanggang ngayon kapos pa rin?

May nasabi man lang ba si hindut na bawasan ang bobong intel fund niya?

Kaldero, eroplano.... puro kasi papogi. Walang substance 😭 Oo na! Tutulong na ako! Puro ako reklmo! E di sige tatakbo akong presidente sa susunod! Oo na! Ako na ang magaling! Inunahan ko na po kayo 😏

Ask Jack Ma from AlibabaGroup & LazadaPH ... He sends a Million free Masks and half a million testing kits to the US and Zero to the Philippines!...

State owned......

So the published statement of Panelo in DOH viber grp is not true wherein he said there is no shortage of funds 😟

No budget for health workers yet bottomless intelligence funds for DDS bloggers who poison the air and the peoples' minds with their fake take on the news.

Hindi kayang bigyan ng pera o gamit ng sariling may-ari, kaya nanlilimos sa taumbayan? Anuna mga DDS ebak, kakahiya ng gobyerno nyo oh! DuterteTheVirus 🦠

Now would be a great time to sell THAT damn plane. A tax-funded facility should be the last to run short or run out of these things.

Is dis FOR REAL? Asan ang mga govt officials Isn’t it the sec of health’s calling for replenishing of all needed supplies for govt hosp po?! An po sv ng DOHgovph abt ds?HOW COME this is happening Asan un mhilig s mga prescon 🤔🤔🤔🧐🧐🧐🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️ ataLOST 💔💔💔😔😔😔

Parang kabibile lang.

ACCEPT the fact that we're 2nd class citizens in our own country. Filipinos are not the priority but China. Is that hard to understand ?

Kinukulang po tayo ng mga alcohol, pero sabi ng isang govt official, hindi po tayo mauubusan, nasaan na kaya ang mga alcohol?bakit po hibdi ipatupad ang 2btls lang at give priority sa ating frontliners?

Meron ako dito gin bulag

State owned po ba ang PGH? I thought half ay nabenta to sa private company nung panahon no Erap? 🤔

Bakit hinde na lang ibigay ng mga hinayupak na tongressmen at senatong na yan ang kanilang pork barrel para makatulong sa pagbili ng mga gamit para labanan ang covid-19? Bakit kailangan pa silang gumawa ng supplemental budget? Ayaw galawin ang pork barrel?

DickGordonDG Penge daw sis.

SAPBongGo yung funds para sa sapatos mo. Palagay mo MochaUson?

This is what happen when U slashed 10B on their budget instead putting it more on Intel fund

Binawasan kasi budget ng health sector.

Attention DOH san na pondo nyo? Wag kurakot

Just wow. Very well plan.

Wag kayong mag-alala. Papunta na ang tulong ni VP Leni with the donations they gathered and also coming from the funds of OVP. Mabuhay!

Ask the president for it!
