The Philippine National Police (PNP) gave the assurance that it is ready to help the Department of Health (DOH) address the various situations that will arise in the wake of the confirmation of the first case of 2019 novel coronavirus acute respiratory disease (nCoV ARD) in the country.

“The PNP would always be dependent sa disposition ng DOH. Ano ang magiging desisyon nila , we will always abide,” PNP chief Gen. Archie Gamboa told reporters in an ambush interview after an event at the Quezon City Police District Friday.Gamboa said that the PNP has a chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear defense equipment unit that is ready for use on patients who will test positive for the virus.

However, Gamboa said they have to prioritize the safety of their personnel first through “taking [a] cue from the DOH” including their “guidance” of what the PNP has to do because “they have the expertise on determining” it.
