MANILA - The Philippines is at "critical risk" level for COVID-19, a former adviser for the government's task force against the pandemic said Sunday, a day after the country recorded a new record of daily fresh coronavirus cases.
Healthcare capacity is considered "high-risk" when its occupancy reaches more than 70 percent and "critical risk" at 85 percent, Leachon said. "Ang fundamental principle is health is the first wealth. You cannot open the economy if virus transmission is uncontrolled... Meron kang plano pero hindi mo hinanda ang infrastructure. Mag-granular ka nang hindi ready ang infrastructure. You are setting us up to fail."
"It’s very possible makita natin ang 30,000 cases before end of the month," David said in a separate interview on TeleRadyo.
