In his message, President Rodrigo Duterte praised the valor not just of the Philippines’ past heroes— but also of the present ones who have been risking their lives to fight a “different kind of enemy.”

He likewise expressed hope that the Filipino heroes’ bravery will continue to inspire the public to overcome “even the most unfavorable situations" and become"everyday heroes" themselves.

“As we commemorate National Heroes’ Day, the National Task Force Against COVID-19 honors our modern-day heroes— our medical frontliners— who have made every conceivable sacrifice to ensure the health and safety of the Filipino people,” the National Task Force said in a statement. Aside from health workers, the Task Force also praised the contributions of non-medical frontliners, including military and police personnel, saying their efforts will be “remembered and honored.”
