The Department of Health said uniform border control in the Philippines is the “most important” preventive measure against community transmission of the Delta COVID-19 variant.

“Ang kailangan ho natin talagang gawin ngayon, ang pinakaimportante is our border control. Kailangan pare-pareho ang pagpapatupad natin across the regions at kung ano man ang nairekomenda natin base sa advice ng mga experts, ipatupad natin nang maayos,”Vergeire also asked institutions, particularly the aviation industry, to work with the government in implementing strict border protocols in order to prevent the variants from getting into the country.

Aside from border control, Vergeire urged local government units to implement minimum public health standards and the prevent-detect-isolate-treat-reintegrate response at the community level. She also encouraged the public to get vaccinated once eligible to fight the Delta variant.

Not containing, not minimising the spread. Vaccine only. Means Sinovac is not effective with delta variant? So, PH should bring western brand instead. Otherwise it’s a waste of taxpayers money.
