"[Ang COVID-19] number one na pwede sanang ma-contain sa Maynila pero nagii-spread sa provinces kasi hindi natin pinapa-test ‘yung pinapabiyahe natin,"[Translation: COVID-19 can be contained in Manila but it is still spreading in the provinces because we have not been testing the ones who are allowed to travel back.]
With the RT-PCR tests, swabs of samples taken from the nose and throat are tested to find out whether a person has the coronavirus. It is considered by health experts as the"gold standard" in confirmatory testing. "Sana kung meron naman palang 10 million na test kits, sana isama na, kasi nakita ko yung listahan.
