According to DOH, the indicated addresses of three of the 19 cases—a 10-year-old boy, a 54-year-old woman, and a 33 year-old man—is in Davao Region. It noted that the three cases, all active with mild symptoms, currently do not have any known link to each other.
Two cases, meanwhile, have indicated addresses in Calabarzon. One of them is a 20-year-old woman who went through a swab test on December 22 and has unknown exposure to Covid-19. The DOH said she has already recovered from the illness. The other case is a 76-year-old woman with exposure to a positive case last January 21 and is currently experiencing mild symptoms.
Eight of the 19 cases are returning overseas Filipinos aged between 28 to 53 years old, said the DOH. Four of them are men and four are women. Of the eight ROFs, six are being “managed” in ROF isolation facilities, while the two others are tagged as recoveries.“Case investigation and contact tracing have been initiated to verify reported information and trace possible sources of infection. The DOH shall release additional information once available,” the health department said.
It added that case investigation and contact tracing will also immediately be conducted through the Centers for Health Development and regional epidemiology and surveillance units, in coordination with concerned offices of local government units.
