Public behavior critical in sustaining ‘flattening of curve’
Professor Ranjit Rye, founder of the UP Octa Research Team reminded Filipinos to continue observing minimum health standards set by the government after the country reported its lowest number of new daily COVID-19 cases in nearly eight weeks on Monday.
“Yung ginagawa natin diba magsuot ng face mask. Ang galing ng face shield, malaking bagay ang face shield. Eto yung talagang importante pag lalabas man tayo. Physical distancing tsaka maghuhugas tayo ng kamay. Yung maliliit na ginagawa nating ganyan, nakakababa yan ng rate of transmission ,” he continued.
“Sa aming bulletin dito sa Philippine General Hospital, nakita ko kanina lang na mas maluwag na hindi na ganun kasikip. Pero hindi ibig sabihin ng mga ganitong magagandang balita ay masaya na tayong lahat lalabas. Kaya ito nangyayari kasi nakipag-cooperate tayo, nakaaksyon ang ating local government unit sa tamang paraan ng isolation, quarantine, at eto na yung tulong-tulong, bayanihan natin ,” Tee said.
