Despite the government’s claim that the country is “winning” the fight against COVID-19, experts projections showed that coronavirus infections in the Philippines may reach 60,000 by the end of July. | DJEsguerraINQ

The death count, meanwhile, may reach 1,300 by July 31, the experts projected.

From an average of 271 fresh COVID-19 cases per day during Enhanced Community Quarantine to 396 fresh cases per day during Modified Enhanced Community Quarantine , to 583 fresh cases per day during General Community Quarantine , the study noted. “Nonetheless, the positivity rate over the past two weeks is trending up suggesting that the pandemic is spreading more significantly. We believe that this uptick in the positivity rate reflects the current situation in Cebu, which is experiencing a surge in infections.”

“In our view, the aforementioned national and local projections represent a significant increase in transmissions and is a serious cause for concern that needs to be examined and given appropriate and immediate response by the government,” UP OCTA said.The researchers include UP mathematics professor Guido David, UP political science professor Ranjit Singh Rye, Maria Patricia Agbulos, and University of Santo Tomas biology professor Reverend Fr Nicanor Austriaco.

DJEsguerraINQ I dont need to point out the best cure as its obvious.

DJEsguerraINQ Replace Duque w/ some1 w/ better hold on d issue & d numbers will b decimated. Conduct mass testing & cases will b further reduced. Refine balik probinsya & cases will b contained. Better quarantine program 4 OFWs & it can really help. Ppol shud cooperate & we will win.

DJEsguerraINQ We have accepted our fate as long Duque is the DOH head, kahit 70k, 80k, 90k

DJEsguerraINQ Ok back to ECQ ulit guys

DJEsguerraINQ Dati june ngayon july na.. tapos december... mmm

DJEsguerraINQ This is alarming. It will get worse especially if government continues its 'very best.' MassTestingNowPH NasaanAngAyuda naibulsa na ba?

DJEsguerraINQ 60,000 COVID-19 cases are just the tip of the iceberg in the Philippines. With only 10.000 tests a day, there is a lack of clarity to make sensible decisions and measures. If the government continues to be so incompetent, the virus will still be a problem in 10 years in PH.

DJEsguerraINQ COVID Stop! - Ptr. Q, use your power please, now na. 🙏😌🙏

DJEsguerraINQ We're already at 44K. 60K is not too far off.

DJEsguerraINQ maybe dutae’s meaning of winning is, the more Covid Cases the “Bongga!”

DJEsguerraINQ Ay biruin mo kung aabot k nga naman sa 60,000, hindi nga ba’t panalo yun? Hinahabol nga siguro ang Indonesia at Singapore para ang Pilipinas ang 1. “Winning” na talaga nun!

DJEsguerraINQ Ibig sabihin lang na yung mga protocols na isinasagawa ay hindi tugma sa pagsugpo ng Covid. Kung sa ibang bansa ito, nag resign na ang mga opisyales ng gobyerno na direktang nagpapatupad. Dito lang sa Pinas yung kumakapit sa position nila kahit palpak na ang trabaho. Resign na!

DJEsguerraINQ Hope they find better ways to stop the spreading of this virus..
