DUTERTE ADMIN PRODDED TO

SPEED UP COVID-19 MASS
TESTING AMID
EXTENDED LOCKDOWN

By: Gabriel Pabico Lalu - Reporter /

@GabrielLaluINQINQUIRER.net / 09:51
PM May 12, 2020

MANILA, Philippines — The government

should take advantage of the latest
extension of the COVID-19 lockdown
over the National Capital Region (NCR)
and other areas by speeding up its mass
testing procedures

This was the call of the Bagong

Alyansang Makabayan (Bayan), stressing
that the Duterte administration should
“rectify serious shortcomings” in its fight
against the pandemic.
“Government should step up mass
testing, not just in terms of the total
number of tests but more so in terms of
the concentration or focus of the tests, the
areas that have a high incidence of
COVID 19,” Bayan secretary-general
Renato Reyes said in a statement. “The
necessary health and economic measures
have long been lacking in the areas under
ECQ, which is the reason why another
extension is now being imposed. The
government must also rectify these
serious shortcomings towards the
eventual lifting of the ECQ,” he added.
The national government on Tuesday
extended the enhanced community
quarantine (ECQ) – albeit “modified” – in
NCR, Cebu City, and Laguna province
until May 31 as these areas are still
considered “high-risk” for COVID-19
transmission, and placed dozens of
provinces deemed to have “moderate risk”
for virus spread under the general
community quarantine (GCQ) from May
16. Meanwhile, the national
government is set to remove
quarantine measures in areas
considered “low-risk” for COVID-19
transmission by May 16. Reyes said
the government must still ensure that
health measures are in place and
personal protective equipment like face
masks must remain available across the
country amid loosened quarantine
classifications. “The lifting of the ECQ and
the transition to GCQ in many provinces
still necessitates timely health
interventions as the population prepares
to return to work,” he explained. “The
health of the workforce must be ensured.
Face masks should be made free.
Employers should shoulder the cost of
mass testing of their workforce.
Transportation, which was already lacking
even before the ECQ, should be made
available for the workforce,” he added.
Presidential spokesperson Harry Roque
previously admitted that the government
missed out on its April 30 goal of having
8,000 tests per day but also said that the
“by hook or by crook”, the country will do
the COVID-19 test of 30,000 a day by end
of May. Calls for the government to
urgently move to adopt a policy on mass
testing started in March. Department of
Health (DOH) data on May 10 showed
that 173,352 individuals have been tested
for possible coronavirus infection by
various testing sites, with 15,002 initially
testing positive. And despite the easing of
quarantine regulations, DOH has admitted
that they have yet to control the spread of
the novel coronavirus or SARS-CoV-2,
which causes respiratory illness COVID-
 19, reminding people to still observe
health protocols to avert mass infections.
As of Tuesday, DOH said the Philippines
has 11,350 SARS-CoV-2 infections as
well as 751 deaths and 2,106 recoveries
from COVID-19.
