EDITORIAL-Humans, ‘not immortals’
It’s easy to think they’re invincible, superhuman even, the way health care workers toil long hours under the most trying circumstances, as they battle a pandemic that has felled millions and shows no signs of abating. But even such acts of valor have a limit.

The shortage of health workers had been a problem for years before the pandemic, and has become more pronounced now. Instead of the risky shortcuts in health protocols, how about finally implementing a mass hiring of regular health workers with a “living wage” to make them stay and sustain the health care capacity of hospitals? How about asking other government agencies or local government units to lend their medical personnel to affected hospitals so infected health care workers can get the rest and recuperation they need and deserve? And most of all, how about ensuring that those who are forced to man the frontlines be given all the support and protection they need to survive?
As it is, the new directive indicates that the DOH has not learned from its costly neglect of health workers in previous years, and that its own statement might hold true for itself—that 2022 might well be 2020, too.

COMMENT: .
The healthcare system is a bog down machinery so much so that the master magician cannot be fired out by DU30 because only he can do the card trick to enslave the medical healthcare professionals as if they’re ROBOTS….

We need to unlock more of Omicron’s secrets
LAST week, OCTA Research fellow Fr. Nicanor Austriaco boldly declared that the Omicron is the “beginning of the end” of the Covid-19 pandemic.
“Omicron is going to provide the kind of population immunity that will stabilize our societies and should allow us to reopen after Omicron has begun. It should provide the population protection that we need everywhere,” the microbiologist said.
A recent Social Weather Stations survey shows at least 80 percent of Filipinos hope that the “worst” phase of the pandemic is over. That could be a sign of what a virus expert describes as “variant fatigue.” That’s when people start to accept that “this is what viruses do; we just need to get on with our lives.”
“Variant fatigue” is just a more fancy term for complacency.

Let’s have ASF answers
An enraged public, battered by Covid-19 and rising living costs, is expecting heads to roll following allegations that livestock department officials covered up an African Swine Fever (ASF) outbreak that has been blamed for soaring pork prices.
<>
Having said that, Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha will see his already sagging popularity sinking beyond rescue if he fails to properly probe the ASF whitewash allegation and ensure that there is accountability.
Hopefully, Gen Prayut can do better than disburse compensation to affected pig farmers and tell the public to eat cooked pork meat.
