tv MANILA - The Philippine Red Cross rescued a COVID-19 positive nurse who was kicked out of her boarding house and seen roaming the streets of Makati, its officials said Sunday.
The nurse said she informed her family in Batangas, but they said they could not come and get her because it was already late."Nung naghahanap po ako ng matutuluyan ko, wala po akong makita sa Makati. Hanggang dun po ako nakarating sa Pasay, dun po ako naka-check in," she said. "Nanlulumo ako nung nakita ko talaga. Nandun siya sa gutter nakaupo. Naiyak talaga ako nun - ang nurse na nag-COVID positive ganun ang treatment natin," Beltejar said.Sen. Richard Gordon, chairman of the PRC, said he would report the incident to government officials and urge them to put in place policies currently lacking in local governments.
"Mukhang mali ang polisiya ng gobyerno. Isang nurse na magagamit natin sa paglaban sa COVID, lumalabas, walang policy ang gobyerno. 'Di nate-train ang barangay para alam nila kung ano ang gagawin 'pag may ganyang kaso," he said.
