The Quezon City government on Monday explained that it is the standard protocol of the Department of Health (DOH) to send home patients with novel coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) symptoms as what was done by the city-based hospital on three patients that drew intense public criticism.

Dr. Rolando Cruz, head of Quezon City Epidemiology and Surveillance Unit, issued the clarification after three individuals were sent home after being checked and tested positive for the virus.

Earlier, Mayor Joy Belmonte expressed concern after the three residents were confirmed positive for COVID-19 and were sent home. Given this, Dr. Cruz said the local government has started implementing Extreme Enhanced Community Quarantine on residences of positive patients sent home wherein they shall be “strictly’’ monitored by uniformed personnel and provided with necessary assistance in order to ensure their isolation.

One of which is the recently established HOPE-1, the first of several temporary medical facilities dedicated for PUIs and positive COVID-19 patients who need to be under strict quarantine to prevent the transmission of the virus in the communities.
