The public must continue to wear face masks as an added protection against the spread of COVID-19, the head of the Private Hospitals Association Philippines (PHAPi) said on Thursday.
“Kailangan ituloy po natin siguro until end of the year. Palagay ko wala naman magiging problema kung mag-wear tayo ng face mask at added protection po, mas maganda kaysa sa risk na ating haharapin kung sakaling mag-alis tayo ng face mask,” PHAPi president Dr. Jose De Grano said at the Laging Handa briefing.
“Ngayon dumadami yung admission namin sa non-COVID cases, most probably ito ay brought about dahil ito pong mga dating sakit nila mga comorbidities nila, halimbawa hypertension, diabetes, asthma, iba’t ibang sakit katulad ng cancer at saka mga sakit sa bato na napabayaan siguro for the past two years or more,” he said.
