[VIDEO EDITORIAL] Incompetent much? 'Unused and misused' na pondo ng DOH

Naitala na ang unang kaso ng Lambda variant sa Pilipinas. Kung mabagsik ang Delta, mas mabagsik umano ang Lambda.

Sa katunayan, dumaranas tayo ngayon ng pinakamalalang surge na naitala sa bansa. Nitong August 15, lumagpas na naman ang mga active cases sa 100,000, kung saan nasa 14,700 ang bagong kaso. Ilang beses na nating sinabi na walang matinong contact tracing sa Pilipinas, at walang malawakang testing na nagaganap. Pero sa likod ng lahat ng isyung ito ay isang bagay: budget.P11.9 billion ang hindi nagamit para sa risk allowance at hazard payP2.8 billion ang nakatiwangwang na infrastructure projectsP24.6 billion ang hindi nagamit para sa public health serviceP306.7 million ang hindi nagamit para sa disaster risk reductionP3.

Ang Commission on Audit report ay snapshot ng ginawa ng DOH nang pumutok ang pandemya noong 2020."Missed opportunities" ang tawag ng COA sa mga pondong hindi ginamit nang tama ng DOH.Dagdag pa ng COA, sana'y kumilos nang may"urgency at efficiency" ang departamento sa gitna ng emergency ng COVID-19.si Francis Fukuyama na nagsabing ang political leadership ang magpapasya sa kabiguan o tagumpay ng mga pandemic strategy sa buong mundo.
