Senator Nancy Binay is proposing a lockdown similar to that imposed in Wuhan, China, Italy and Spain, where Filipinos are quarantined inside their homes for at least 14 days. | DYGalvezINQ

This is to “flatten the curve” of COVID-19 cases as Binay noted that contact tracing that the government is conducting is a “failure,” and test kits for COVID-19 cases are lacking.

“Ang palpak ng contact tracing natin, kulang ang testing kits at ang gagawa ng tests. Mahirap na malaman kung sino talaga ang may COVID-19. The only way to flatten the curve kung lahat tayo mag self quarantine for 14 days,” BInay added. Binay added that the Department of Social Welfare and Development could also distribute food packs that they have with them so that Filipinos would have food for 14 days.The national government and local government units could also distribute food kits or grocery items to its constituents “door-to-door,” she further said.To date, the Philippines has recorded a total of 140 confirmed cases of COVID-19, with 12 deaths.

DYGalvezINQ Hahahahahahaha mga tao na ito..sino ba mga nag boto sa inyo?

DYGalvezINQ This is oa.. what if d virus still rampant after a month then another month of cq and so on.. look at what singapore is doing to combat the virus.. the pm is so assuring and calm subsiding the panic of their citizens..

DYGalvezINQ Good luck there will be so many reasons and excuses to find a loophole. Funny how well we obeyed abroad but defy everything at home

DYGalvezINQ 2 weeks is not enough. There are cases where the incubation period is more than 14 days. Also after the patient recovered he still has the virus for sometime. Actually, quarantine derived from an Italian word, means 40 days

DYGalvezINQ Keri ba ng iba ang 14 days? 🙁 Baka yung iba na naka pamili na ng needs oo, paano po ang mga hindi? Sana naman naabutan sila.

DYGalvezINQ Will she also be letting everyone know the email address of the LGU department we all need to send our shopping lists to?

DYGalvezINQ I'm waiting po for updates na magdidistribute kayo ng food once na imposed na tong total lockdown.

DYGalvezINQ Ok nmn dn yan kung control & limiting of spread for 14days lng ang target nyo 😔 kse after ng 14days po pano? kht tong lockdown for 30days, pagtapos po pano? Until walang massive testings na dpt nyo hanapan ng paraan, wala pong assurance na “controlled” na ang spread COVID19

DYGalvezINQ EXCITED NA AKONG DUMATING YUNG ARAW NA IBABALITA NG MGA NEWS NETWORK NA TAPOS NA ANG CRISIS TUNGKOL SA COVID - 19 NA WALA NG TRACES OF VIRUS NA LIGTAS NA ANG BUONF BANSA BUONG MUNDO AT BAWAT MYEMBRO NG PAMILYA NATIN. MALAPIT NG DUMATING ANG ARAW NA YUN. KAYA LABAN LANG KABAYAN.

DYGalvezINQ This is really what our country already needs just to prevent MORE rising cases.
