Health workers who die of COVID19 should get hero's burial, says lawmaker

MANILA - Medical workers who succumb to COVID-19 should be buried at the Libingan ng mga Bayani, a lawmaker said Thursday, after increasing cases of the respiratory disease prompted an extended lockdown of half of the country's population. Ako Bicol Party-list Rep. Alfredo Garbin said he would ask Congress to tap the Heroes' Cemetery as the final resting place of the cremated remains of medical frontliners.

"Their families, colleagues, and friends deserve to profoundly feel the eternal gratitude of the Filipino people for their supreme sacrifice, staying at the front lines, knowing it would cost them their lives. Future generations of Filipinos will honor them every time we commemorate National Heroes Day," he said in a statement. The Philippines so far confirmed 3,870 cases of the respiratory disease, with 182 deaths and 96 patients who recovered.

No. leave the soldiers alone in their hallowed ground as our eternal respect for them. Allowing other sectors heroes in there must be stopped LNMBforsoldiers

Opo

No problem. Basta huwag ilibing ang kanilang mga iniwan. Sila ang kailangan tulungan lalo na umaasa sa kanila. Title lang yan pero ang mga nagmamahal yan ang huwag kalilimutan. Bayani ka nga naturingan pero ang mga nagmamahal kumakalam ang sikmura dahil sa bayan.

yes i do because they serve our countryman

Yes. Dahil kabilang din sila SA tunay na bayani 😊

Gugustuhin pa ba ng mga tunay na bayani malibing doon kasama ng diktador na Marcos?

What else do you call those who put their lives in harms way to save lives?

dapat ang taga ABS CBN ang dapat ilibing sa libingan ng mga bayani kasi totoo lahat ang mga balita nila.pero ilibing ng buhay!

Yes

BIG YES! Prayers for Eternal Rest of deceased frontliners and condolences to their loved ones MoreDeserving WePrayAsOne WeHealAsOne

Hindi na kailangan ilibing sa Libingan ng mga Bayani ang mga namatay na frontliners sa COVID. A monument dedicated to them, with their names inscribed thereon and a holiday declared for their remembrance is more memorable.

Medical workers are heroes, but maybe we ought to do all we can to keep them alive instead of glorifying their deaths. This kind of speak sounds suspiciously similar to CCP propaganda

Opo, sila ay bayani sa Pandemic na ito.

Yes na yes !!!

the libingan ng mga bayani has long lost what it stands for after marcos has been laid to rest there.

Yes they deserve that honor.But sana they will be allocated a space solely dedicated to them appropriately named In Honor of our Heroic Frontliners.

No question ask sa frontliners...buwis buhay na nga...di pa makauwi sa bawat pamilya...

Triggered n nmn mga wokes...damay n nmn si marcos..🤣🤣

Yes, because they are our Fallen heroes who fight without doubt to help the infected ones.. GODBLESS TO ALL FRONTLINERS 👍🙏🙏

definitely. but it will be better kung buhay silang bayani kapiling ang kanilang pamilya.

Oo naman. Bayani din naman sila. Ibang war nga lang. Pakikidigma sa virus para sa sinumpaang tungkulin at malasakit sa kapwa.

pg nmatay sa covid19... cremate.. magtayo n lng cla pglalagyn ng urn jn s libingan ng mga byani...

👍

Yes

Maraming basura na nagko-comment! Jusko!

Yes, I agree. The frontliners who sacrificed their lives for us to live, deserves to be in Libingan ng mga bayani, as their final resting place. It is the least we can do.

Yup 💯

why not?

Pwede, but decision pa rin yun ng pamilya nila kung saan nila gusto.

Pabor ako dahil sila ang mga bagong bayani

yes. they deserve it. in this war against Covid19 they are our fallen heroes. 🙏

Oo agree ako. Sa panahon naman ng Covid 19 kabayanihan naman ipinamalas nila. Kaya deserving sila na ihimlay diyan.

yeah! They should be..🙏

Why don’t we just talk about this when COVID-19 has blown over? Because this issue will distract us from far greater issues at hand. Sayang ang efforts dito. Ayusin muna ayuda sa LAHAT ng mga tao, make mass testing happen, etc etc. hays.

Yes

Dapat lang!

Suggest ko is Memorial Statue list all of those Frontliners who Perished in COVID19 Pandemic, so that Filipinos will remember them... Also let their Family Decide where to buried their Love Ones... Sample ko lang po yung Picture Below... COVID19PH

Pabor👍

Bakit di na pang bigyan ng tamang PPE, sahod, protection from harrassment para wala ng mamatay...

Suggest ko is Memorial Statue list all of those Frontliners who Perished in COVID19 Pandemic, so that Filipinos will remember them... Also let their Family Decide where to buried their Love Ones... Sample ko lang po yung Picture sa Below... COVID19PH

pabot talaga. no doubts they are heroes pero yung obstructionists at anti government effort dun sa dumpsite lang may worst pa sila sa virus

YES

Ganun din sana sa mga OFW

They need protective gears and tangible help more than that

Yes..I'm favor 100%

👍👍🇵🇭🇵🇭❤️❤️

Why and why not? This is a very silly kind of POLL.

Baka mahawa yung ibang bayani

Mas mabuti kung itataas ang sahod ng nasa medical field. Pang matagalan na solusyon at marami makikinabang.

Yes, I’m favor of the proposal for their burial at lining an ng mga bayani

Congress have to ammend the Law for this, why not. Frontliners who died due to COVID19 deserves a heroes burial.

YES... They deserve it more than Marcos na panakw na inilibing sa lugar na yan.

yes

ANCALERTS it’s a YES for me 😇🙏🏽 para nman mas maalala ko sila na anjan,kesa kay Mr. Ex President 🙈

They deserve it

Well nasa pamilya yun kung gusto nila malinya kala Makoy... Accepted yes they are actually heroes so the burden of deciding is within the family base on the situation...

No.

For me no, kasi hindi n nga na mourn ng mga mahal nila s buhay ilalayo pa sila? If possible, in my own opinion s naabot lang ng asking isip , put their names and their respective places sa talaan inside s libingan ng mga bayani...

THE NAME 'HERODES' MEANT HERO A CLAN OF MURDERERS, SUBSERVIENT TO IMPERIAL ATHEIST ROME... MAKADIOS MAKABAYAN AS COVER... ESCARIOT MEANT DECEIVER, NATIONALIST... BETRAYED TRUTH FOR 30DenariousPlus... Bayanis bodies/bones/ashes in LnB BUT HEAVEN OR HELL... NO BigBang hoax no more!

Yes

Ahh so ur bringing this up! So paano na yung statement n PRes DU30 na to die for ur country is an honour tsk tsk

Yes

FrontlinersPH heroes are more deserving than Marcos so why not?

Dapat lang po lalo na yong mga namatay dahil sa kakulangan ng PPE at medical supplies. We did not give them enough ammunition to defend themselves. That's the least we could do to their grieving families, a solid manifestation of our appreciation for their life offering.

Of course BIG YES... wala silang pinagkaiba sa mga sundalo na namatay sa gera...

They should be. They are heroes for risking their lives to save ours 😊♥️🙏🏻

Wala lang talagang nasasabi pati ba nmn to hello

I am. They are true heroes and they stand for every other healthcare worker.

Hasthere? How about the others?like Luisita Massacre? CJ Córona? itshisghost you necrophilliacs!

Definitely Yes! because they’re our modern heroes. They sacrificed their lives for their love to their countrymen.

A bit to early to be making jokes about dying on the job.

This pandemic is now part of Filipino history. And, in every great stories, there are heroes!

Wala ako nakikita reason para hindi natin gawin yan. Tandaan ninyo namatay sila para iligtas bansa natin.

Yes, they deserve it ❤️

Nakakatuwa naman mga reply. Naikonek pa tapos gusto ipahukay yung dating presidente na nakalibing dun. Mga Christian Hyprocrites.

They are our fallen heroes of this war against Disease.

Yes I'm in favor po. They deserve po nila.

Yes mas better naman na sila ang nakalibing doon kaysa kay Macoy...

Yah baket hinde.. they died while trying to save other lives di ba. I think mas deserving naman sila kesa kay Marcos. Just my opinion.

💯❤

ANCALERTS Agree!

YES

Y not

Pwede po

Oo naman

They are already clean HERO No Questions. Only Corrupt Government not belongs that place. BlindGovernment 💀

I agree!

Tangalin muna yong isang pinilit na nilibing dyan. Nakakahiya naman sa mga tunay na heroes.

Okay ito. Pero mas ok na gumawa ng steps na di na madagdagan HCWs na magbuwis ng buhay. Lyk at present, wala na naman daw pera sabi ni DUTAE, pero wla namang klarong breakdown ng nagasta na. Hwag sabihing magkaubusan na nman ng PPE pra lang masunod gusto nilang emrgency powers 2?

Tanggalin si marcos para mas madaming space at mailibing yung mga deserving, yung mga tunay na bayani.

Yep dapat lahat ng fronliners, hinde lng healthworkers: Doctors Nurses Laboratory Technician Utility worker Police Pharmacist Security Guard Salesperson Bagger Service Crew Baranggay Tanod Mayors

Instead of being buried at the Libingan ng mga Bayani why not eventually put up a memorial for them. They can still be buried in their respective hometowns near their families and still be remembered for their heroism.

Why not.. I agree with that shit!

The doctors and health workers who died while fighting COVID-19 were literally brave soldiers. They fought even with shortage in PPE, hirap sa byahe, sacrificed touching their families, working non stop na maliit salary... only to die in the end. They deserve it. Periodt.

We are all heroes to our family's survival and to our community

i think maxado namang advance na pinaghahandaan agad ang paglilibingan nila, mas okay sana kung ishoulder na lang nang gobyerno pagpapalibing plus supportahan ang maiiwan na pamilya financially.pero sana mas tuunan nila pansin pano d mamatay sila w/ proper equipments n structures

They deserved it more than some elected officials burried there

Yes

Ang alam ko kung namatay dahil sa Covid 19, cremation ang required. Unless may columbarium ang Libingan ng mga Bayani, why not?

Yes

Yes favor

Yes please.

Why are our legislators like this? Bakit laging reactive. Reward pag wala na. Ok lang sana KUNG pinahahalagahan din nila yung buhay ng frontliners. Counteractive measures were needed as early as Jan. May narinig ba tayo sa kanila? Consuelo de bobo na to e.

Yes!

This is an afterthought. How about we take care of them while they're alive, and not obsess about the way we would commemorate them when they're gone. A grave is a grave. The dead won't know the difference. Saving a person's life should be our main focus.

Why not , but for me what more important ay ung mga naiwan nila, case in point the doctor who died na siya ang breadwinner ng family. make sure na ok ang naiwan nila lalo financially, thats the least thegovt can offer them

Kawawa naman sila makakasama nila si Marcos

Yes

Yes ! Alisin si Ferdinand Marcos dun at ilipat ang tunay na bayani nang pilipinas ...

Pwede,

Oo pabor ako at dapat pati un mga ofw na sinasabi nting bayani.

Yes pabor ako sila ay mga Bayani natin!

Getting the opinion of the taong bayan? But first, who decides on this and implements? If the taong bayan doesn't have a say on this, then don't ask. Coz the buzz would just end as a buzz.

ANCALERTS Yes. I lost a loved one yesterday. Manny Pacheco, Chief Nurse of Mandaluyong City Medical Center.

Yes yes yes... Mas may saysay buhay nila kesa sa mga presidente.

sila ang bagong bayani ngayon!

So bakit topic ito ngayon? Bat di nyo tanungin yung mga healthcare workers mismo kung may pakealam ba sila kung saan sila ililibing .. for sure ang gusto lang nila e matapos to nang buhay pa sila.

YES na YES po, bayani po sila ng bayan at mahigit pa sa mga sundalong lumalaban sa gera na di nila nakikita ang kalaban...Kya saludo po aq sa kanila....🙏🙏🙏

yes!

gpbakan Yes

yes I agree 100%

Yes, if the frontliner passed away while doing their duty. But if this group really want to honor our frontliners (longterm), pass a bill and make a law that will increase their benefits, salaries and keep them safe.

Big yes po!

by all means! mga tunay na bayani sila!

Yes.

bayani

They deserve it naman.

Abs-cbn kayo ililibing namin jan mga bobo puro kau pabida mga BIAS NA MEDIA MGA BOBO!!!!

If there’s a law, then it must be revised first. As I understand it is reserved for heads of state, soldiers, etc. Personally, our healthcare workers deserve the recognition.

pabor po

yesstoabscbnshutdown yesstoabscbnshutdown yesstoabscbnshutdown yesstoabscbnshutdown yesstoabscbnshutdown

Yes

May mga nurse at doctor na may choice na ‘wag nang pumasok sa trabaho para hindi mahawa, pero yung mga pumanaw na healthcare workers, mas pinili parin pumasok sa ospital kahit na alam nilang matagal silang mawawalay sa pamilya nila, minsan pandidirihan pa kaya DAPAT LANG.

Mas deserving naman sila kaya sa magnanakaw.

Also, in his press conferences, it would be a good move for duterte to enumerate the names of doctors and nurses who gave their lives to save others. He hasn’t named them yet.

They only deserve to be buried there but they deserve more financial assistance for their families left behind from the government who did not take care of them.

No, baka ma-infect pa si Marcos

Yess na yess

Yes without a doubt.

I believe so. They risked their lives rescuing others, isnt that heroic?

May Marcos apologist oh..🙄🙄

YES!

👍

Why not? ? Hello? They died serving the MASSES!!!!

ANCALERTS that land's been tainted. medal of valor, or something of great significance that will aptly symbolize their effort and saceifice --- to be given to those who passed and those who made it.

Yes I am in favor of this move and please include in honoring our frontliners especially nurses and doctors to file a bill in CongressRaisingTheSalaryOfThoseInMedicalPractise, napakababa ng salaries esp nurses in private hospitals and wala pa silang HMO cards,KungTotoongBayaniSla

Yes po pero may dapat alisin kasi hindi naman bayaning matatawag ang mamamatay at mandarambong

More derserving than the other “soldier heroes” buried there. I can name two.

Hero na sila kaya no need

Mas deserving cla compare ky marcos.

Oo tapos panagutin ang sistema, dahil pinatay silang sistema.

Yes

dami nagsasabi mandarambog at magnanakw marcos? hahaha ung dilawan nio inassest nio na ba? hirap sa tao dami kuda.

Yes we salute to.all front liners especially medical personell who they suffer to save affected of covid virus

Pati din po sana yung mga namatay na utilities ng ospital. Farmers na tuloy tuloy ang pag ani ng bigas at gulay. Yung mga di nakikitang tao pero fronliners din

Yes, they’ve sacrificed their lives to save others.

posting something again just to trigger Marcos’ burial sa libingan ng mga bayani. Pa simpleng tanong pero daming bayaran na isinisingit si Marcos 😅😅😅 Tactic ng mga dilawan! 🤭 🤣 MoveOn FunnyThough YELLOWextraSERVICE

naku hinde! mbabahiran lng kadakilaan nila dun!

Bakit laging end game solutions! Binigyan ng spcl powers ang mai sip na solusyon ang pag lilibingan! Why not assure frontliners of sufficient supply of PPEs na ginawa na Dapat beforehand! Inutil na gobyerno! resign

Hu! Isipin nyo muna mga buhay pa!

Dun nakalibing si Marcos, wag naman natin bastusin ang kagitingan ng mga dakila nating healthworkers na nagbuwisbuhay para sa atin

ANCALERTS Heroes, soldiers, former presidents, govt dignitaries, statesmen, national artist and other deceased persons whose interment and re-interment has been approved by the commander-in-chief, Congress or the secretary of national defense

naman! un pinaka magnanakaw ng pinas at pekeng bayani inilibing dyan ng panakaw... mas may karapatan naman ang mga frontliners na mailibing dyan!😂

Yung magnanakaw nga, nailibing jan. Ano pa kung tunay na naglingkod sa bayan at sa mga Pilipino? YES!

Pwede din… Pero depende sa family kasi pag taga province like visayas and mindanao ang HCW hirap naman yun sa family bumisita

Ano ba ang kahulugan ng “bayani”? Yun bang nakipaglaban sa gyera lang ba? O yun sumuong sa panganib dala ng pandemic? I think old/traditional definitions have to be modified and responsive to realities of the moment. OUSTDUTERTENOW

EstelleSelfie Yes na yes. Kung si Marcos nga eh, nailibing diyan na hindi niya deserve, sila pa Kaya. Modern day heroes ang mga health workers ngayon.

Pabor ako dyan ❤

YEZZZZ

It doesn’t Make a difference.

Yes!

Yes na yes! Modern heroes yan.

Of course! Si marcos nga kawatan eh andyan Doc4Dead

YES PLS

Yes, we are at war from invisible enemy! 👩‍⚕️ 👨‍⚕️ 👮‍♀️ 👮 WeHealAsOne FrontlinersPH FrontLineHeroes

yes.

no

why not? may magnanakaw ngang nakabaon diyan eh

Oo naman, si macoy nga nilibing jan, mas deserve naman ng mga health workers un

Anong mensahe ba ang gusto nyong iparating ss mga frontliner sa laban Convid19? Buhay pa sila pinaghahandaan nyo na ng libingan? Hindi ito ang tamang panahon para pagusapan ang bagay na iyan!!! Ang dapat pagusapan kung papano maiwasan na sila ay mahawa!!!

Pati pag ppalibing dpat may survey Kya tlgang ayaw I p renew kyo eh

maraming nagpapanggap na frontline heroes, gusto nyo ilibing sila sa libingan ng bayani. the true value of hero is becoming normal because of the pandemic, evaluate more.

Yes please 100% and pakitangal na din si Marcos dyan while we are at it. Nakakabastos sa mga health workers para mapabilang sya dyan!

May magnanakaw nga pong inilibing dyan e.

yes

Pwede naman. Wala problema

ANCALERTS Yes, if they contacted the virus by attending to a COVID-19 patient. There might be those who got it through socializing or that sort of unmindful activity, and they just happened to be health workers.

Wag nmn OA ha

Totally agree, they died serving the people; their families sacrified too...May they all rest in peace🙏🙏🙏

Yes I do 🙏

YES!

Definitely!

Yes!

I’m ok for that kesa kay marcos

Kaso nabahiran na ng dumi ng marcos yang libingan ng mga bayani.

pakitanggal si u know who at ilagay ang mga nasawing frontliners pls!!

2/2 and safety yet they are exposed to the virus just as the same as the health workers. Yan ang tinatawag na above ang beyond.

Yes! the deserve it. Bigyan ng area sa loob na dedicated sa healthcare workers or a memorial cos they should never be forgotten.

First, think of the guidelines first and who has the authority to make changes to the guidelines to make everything legal.

ANCALERTS Basta hukayin ang mandarambong. Insulto sa mga healthcare workers na may katabing magnanakaw.

Big Yes

1/2 With all due respect, healthcare workers (Doctors, Nurses, etc.) have done a great job. But they are trained for this kind of situations. Mas maigi na bigyang pansin ang mga pump attendants, grocery store workers, delivery personnel, etc. They know nothing about health

YES 👍🏻 They deserve to be a Hero, they offered their lives to save people’s lives.

Yes!!!! They risked their lives to survive the people with covid...

I've proposed this idea before! For me, any Filipino who honorably died in service of the Filipinos and the country deserves a place in Heroes' Cemetery in Taguig

Yes. They are the modern day heroes!

Dapat lang.

yes, to honor them, cause the enemy is unseen.

oo naman pero sana ay hindi kailan man ay itatabi dun sa pinagbaunan ng basurang si ferdinand upang hindi naman mabastos ang kadakilaan ng ating mga frontliners. mas malayo kay ferdinand mas maganda.

Better than Ferdinand Marcos

Ang alam ko may batas kung sino ang dapat nakalibing jan. Kung meron, iaamend pa yan.

Si marcos nga dyan nakalibing eh. Mas deserving naman ang frontliners noh.

Wala ba uplifting na balita? Yong hindi tungkol sa sementeryo? Puro na lang kamatayan.

Opo! Mga bayani silang tunay.

G!!!

would prefer a symbolic monument (maybe in luneta?) with all their names engraved in honor of their bravery and service.

In fact HALF MAST of our Flag should be done. They should be buried in Libangan. dapat lng.

Equip Empower Expend Resources to the Health System. Funding is Key. Honouring Dead means something. At the end of the Day. Medical Profession is about caring ALiVE & future generations.

Sana rin makuha ng surviving family ang pangakong P1million per death. 🤞🤞🤞

You make them “heroes” when they would rather be “people”. It you are a lawmaker, move resources to help them so they do not need to turn into martyrs and heroes.

They are soldiers in a different uniform doing the same job... protecting and saving the people. They gave it all...They are heroes

Paano sila naging hero eh trabaho naman talaga nila yun?

Okay to pero pahukay at paalisin muna si marcos dun.

Magandang panukala ito, pero mas mainam kung sisiguruhin ng gobyerno natin na sapat ang kanilang mga proteksyon para mabawasan ang namamatay na HCW.
