DOH, NTF expand efforts to reduce COVID-19 cases, decongest hospitals

(ALI VICOY / FILE PHOTO / MANILA BULLETIN) In a statement on Tuesday, April 13, the DOH and NTF said over the next two weeks it will continue to monitor and work with the local government units (LGUs) to reach specific targets to address the increasing cases and hospital occupancies. The DOH and NTF have also committed to reduce the duration of infectiousness of cases through increased contact tracing efficiency and strengthened active case finding through testing at the community level, which they said can help “reduce new infections.” Contact Tracing Czar Baguio City Mayor Benjamin Magalong, the Department of the Interior and Local Government, and the Department of Information and Communications Technology will also further support contact tracing efforts through supplementation of around 27,672 contact tracers in the NCR+ bubble, and by putting in place an automatic contact tracing system using text messaging (SMS).
