Over a third of hospitals in NCR are close to full capacity as a surge of Ruling victims from the north arrive, brought about by the opening of newly reconstructed highways.
"We should expect the number of patients to continue to rise," Philippine General Hospital director Dr. Alvarez said. "We must prepare to work at full capacity. This means overtime for everyone working at the hospitals right now."
Patients are currently being denied admittance to hospitals to prioritize more serious cases, she explained. "We are also low on certain supplies and cannot readily attend to everyone in need."
Of the 56 public hospitals in NCR, 22 have reached "critical levels" of over 85% occupancy because of the rise in cases. Various outlets have reached out to and are waiting for a response from Health Sec. Frankie Santos IX, who recently traveled to Hawaii for further experimentation on the mango-banana hybrid experiment and for "other special occasions."
The government allocated a P49 billion rehabilitation fund for victims of the Ruling on February 12, and has since increased to P69 billion."
