A Social Weather Stations survey tells 4.2 million families or 16.7 percent of the total national population experienced involuntary hunger amid the COVID-19 crisis

Around 4.2 million Filipino families experienced involuntary hunger for the past three months amid the COVID-19 pandemic, a survey from the Social Weather Stations revealed on Thursday.

The special SWS COVID-19 Mobile Phone Survey, conducted from May 4 to 10, noted these families faced involuntary hunger due to lack of food to eat. Other food sources for these families identified in the survey are from relatives, private groups or institutions, friends, and private individuals. Moderate hunger rose from 7.3 percent in December 2019 to 13.9 percent in May 2020, the second-highest tally after 14.1 percent in September 2015.
