Some pregnant residents of Quezon City have been giving birth inside tricycles and other unsuitable environments due to swab test results being required by hospitals prior to their admission.
Mayor Joy Belmonte disclosed this Monday as she called on pregnant women in the city to take advantage of the city’s free swab test program especially if they are already due.
“Ipinapaalala ko sa lahat ng QCitizens, lalo na ang mga may scheduled procedures sa mga ospital o sa mga malapit nang manganganak na may libreng swab test para sa ating mga residente,” Belmonte said.
“Ginagawa nating libre ang testing upang hindi na madagdagan pa ang gastusin ng ating mga kababayang nangangailangang maospital,” she added.
