MANILA— The Department of Health stressed the need for uniform border controls Saturday as authorities sought to keep away the more transmissible Delta coronavirus disease (COVID-19) variant first detected in virus-ravaged India.

In a public press briefing, Health Spokesperson Maria Rosario Vergeire said this method worked in detecting 13 COVID-positive Filipino seafarers who had caught the variant.

"Nakikita nating gumagana ang ating protocols dahil ang 13 na taong may Indian variants na na-detect sa bansa na-detect natin 'yan through protocols in the broders so sana ituloy natin itong mahigpit na border control para ma-prevent natin na it reaches our community,” Vergeire said. The Delta variant increased the number of COVID-19 cases in some western countries such as Australia and the United Kingdom.

“Hindi naman po sa pag-aalarma - dapat cautious, dapat aware tayo na kung saka-sakali mas mabilis ang pagkalat ng impeksyon. Marami ang maoospital, at ito ay mape-prevent kung tayo ay magtutulong tulong for us to implement these preventive measures sa borders sa komunidad sa bawat pamilya,” Vergeire said. With the prevalence of the variant in other countries, the DOH called on the public to comply with minimum public health standards.
