Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque on the latest update of the World Health Organization

The acknowledgment of the World Health Organization (WHO) may be passed through air is something we leave to the health experts. We will be fully supportive of ideas based on science and hard data.

While the scientific community is discussing the mode of transmission of COVID-19, we call on our citizens to continue observing minimum public health standards, such as wearing of masks, washing of hands, and practicing social distancing.

Let us continue to protect people who are considered vulnerable, which include but not limited to our senior citizens, those with co-morbidities, pregnant women by staying at home to save lives. Filipinos demonstrated this before, when more than 8 out of 10 people believe that “stay-at-home measures are worth it to save lives, according to a recent survey. We can do it again so together we can heal and recover as one.
