“Our COVID-19 response is dynamic, and always follows the latest scientific recommendations available. The benefits of in-person and face-to-face schooling now outweigh the risk of COVID-19 infections,” DOH officer-in-charge Maria Rosario Vergeire said.
“Based on our projections which is already updated because of the opening classes maaring tumaas hanggang 9,000 daily cases dito sa bansa pagdating ng end of September hanggang October kung magtutuloy-tuloy na hindi natin mabigyan ng karampatang lunas like complying with minimum public health standards at saka syempre 'yung pagpapabakuna tumaas din,” Vergeire said.
