Some residents of an upscale subdivision in Parañaque asked local officials to send medical teams to check on their Chinese neighbors on Monday. | dexcabalzaINQ

The number of Chinese nationals in Parañaque City has gone up drastically in recent years due to the boom in Pogo offices on Quirino Avenue and Entertainment City.

He clarified, however, that they were not accusing their foreign neighbors of being carriers of the virus strain. But “with the quick turnover of thousands of Pogo workers in the village, the genuine residents are exposing themselves to possible transmission,” Marquez said. In a media briefing, the DOH announced that two hospitals in the two cities had admitted one patient each. Both were undergoing testing for the disease which originated in Wuhan, China.The Muntinlupa and Pasay local governments, however, said in separate statements that there were no confirmed nCoV cases in their areas.

A resident of Pasay City, on the other hand, called on city hall to implement precautionary methods to prevent the virus from spreading. “Maybe you can give free face masks to us and ensure that the hospital will be ready to admit patients exhibiting symptoms of the disease.” Manila city health officer Dr. Arnold Pangan identified the patient as a 27-year-old Chinese Pogo worker from Hubei province who was hospitalized on Jan. 25 for fever and cough. Wuhan is the capital city of Hubei.

dexcabalzaINQ Multinational Village was once an exclusive subdivision. Ngayon mas marami na KUNGFLU kesa Pinoy. Mga ka DDS eto na kasagutan na ang problema ng bansa ay si Taning mismo. Salamat sa POGO, fake goods, coronavirus, wps grabbing etc etc

dexcabalzaINQ INFODEMIC is moving faster than the ncov2020 virus itself. It does not mean that all Chinese are carriers of the virus. Be kind to them.
