The Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry (PCCI) led the private sector in recognizing heroes in the medical community during this pandemic via the Gawad Bayaning Kalusugan award that was presented to the initial batch of 24 awardees.
PCCI President Amb. Benedicto Yujuico said this is their way of honoring healthcare professionals “who continue to risk their lives on a daily basis just so others may live”.

The health frontliners are the true heroes of this pandemic and we are and should forever be grateful. This Gawad Bayaning Kalusugan initiated by Dr. Carl Balita serves as a national tribute to individual health professionals and healthcare teams form hospitals,” Yujuico said.
