MANILA - The Philippine health ministry on Saturday reported 76 additional coronavirus infections and eight new deaths.

A majority of the Philippines' Cabinet members have pledged to voluntarily donate 75 per cent of their monthly salary to aid the government's fight against the disease called Covid-19, Cabinet Secretary Karlo Nograles said on Saturday. He was referring to Republic Act 11469, or the Bayanihan to Heal As One Law, which also gave President Duterte additional powers to address the Covid-19 crisis.
