Editorial- A disturbing development

Since the Luzon-wide lockdown began, Filipinos were told that they should stay home to stay safe from the novel coronavirus (COVID-19).

Now that advice seems suspect, given reports that hospitals in Metro Manila, already stretched to their limits, are sending home patients who have tested positive for COVID-19 for self-quarantine.“In the past, when you test positive, they pick you up, they take you in into a facility,” said Mayor Joy Belmonte, who says she knows of at least three COVID-19 patients who were asked to go home in Quezon City. “But what happens now is that when you test positive, you’re just told that you just go home and you self-quarantine.”

The crisis is bringing out the best – and the worst – in people, with all the epal and sawsaw politicians crawling out of the woodwork. This should come in handy when we pick our next set of officials in 2022.

The quarantine has been painful enough for the public. Abusive officials tasked to implement it will only discourage the kind of public cooperation that is indispensable in a unified fight against the COVID-19 contagion.

EDITORYAL – Kastiguhin ng DILG mga tamad na bgy. chief

MARAMI pa ring gumagalang tao sa kalye. Walang pakialam kahit naka-lockdown o may enhanced community quarantine sa Luzon. Walang takot na mahawahan ng kinatatakutang COVID-19. At ano ang ginagawa ng barangay ukol dito? Tila hindi sinusunod ang utos ng Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG)./ Pilipino Star Ngayon

Marami pa ring nasa kalye kahit bawal. Halimbawa ay sa H. Santos St. sa Makati City na nagkumpul-kumpol din sa kalsada ang mga tao na tila hindi natatakot sa COVID-19. Halos katabi lang ng mga nagkumpol na tao ang barangay hall. Hindi marahil nakikita ng barangay chairman ang mga taong halos magkakadikit na at walang pakialam sa social distancing.

Habang sinusulat ito, umabot na sa 380 ang kaso ng COVID-19 sa bansa at 25 na ang namamatay. Kung hindi maipatutupad nang maayos ang kautusan, magpapatuloy ang pagdami ng kaso at mayroon pang mamamatay. Kastiguhin ng DILG ang mga tatamad-tamad na barangay kapitan na hindi ipinatutupad ang kautusan.
