Mayor Isko orders investigation over improper disposal of used rapid test kits

Manila Mayor Francisco “Isko Moreno” Domagoso ordered an investigation on the used coronavirus disease-2019 rapid test kits that were scattered along M. Dela Fuente Street in Sampaloc, Manila Tuesday night.

“We can locate maybe the clinic, maybe a private office, maybe a hospital, or maybe a laboratory. [The MPD said] they are looking already at sinisiyasat na ‘yung nangyari ,” he added. Mayor Isko stressed that the Manila Health Department and the city government’s six district hospitals strictly adhere with Republic Act No. 6969 or the Toxic Substances and Hazardous and Nuclear Wastes Control Act of 1999 and RA 9003 or the Philippine Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000.
