DILG Secretary Eduardo Año ordered local governments to form Barangay Health Emergency Response Teams that will help stop the possible spread of the novel coronavirus acute respiratory disease in the community level.

will help stop the possible spread of the novel coronavirus acute respiratory disease in the community level.

“We have to prepare, God forbids, for the possible eventuality that 2019 nCoV ARD reaches our communities,” said Año in a statement. “I therefore order our local chief executives to organize BHERTs in all barangays as our effort to be one step ahead of the virus. Kailangan nating paghandaan ito.”According to Año, BHERTs must be composed of an executive officer, a barangay public safety officer, and two barangay health workers — one of them a nurse or a midwife.

These members, who will be appointed by the barangay chairperson, will serve as the “the eyes and ears of the government” by making sure that residents within their jurisdictions are all accounted for and are fully informed about the nCoV.
