Kami po ay nagrere-allocate at nagrere-assign ng ibang areas para buksan para ma-accommodate po itong mga pasyenteng ito. [Although the number of our COVID-19 patients are increasing, we have to make adjustments. We are re-allocating and re-assigning other areas so we can accommodate them],” Ordoña explained in an interview over DZMM Teleradyo.

Ordoña added that they are now working to convert 30 percent of the entire EAMC into COVID-19 wards to meet the standard set by the Department of Health.
