Senate Minority Leader Franklin M. Drilon raised the alarm on state of the country’s health care system following the Department of Health’s (DOH) report that hospitals, particularly in Metro Manila, are reaching its “danger zone” as 82.2% of their total COVID-19 bed capacity are already occupied.
“Instead of laying down a comprehensive plan for the country to combat COVID-19, the President opened his SONA by assailing his critics and ranting about his personal grudge against the media. Clearly, walang maayos na plano.”
“The high degree of corruption within PhilHealth must be stopped. It has reached a level akin to a state of emergency,” Senate Minority Leader Franklin Drilon said.
Malacañang on Wednesday called out the opposition for “resorting to politicking” amid the Covid-19 crisis.
Senate minority leader Franklin Drilon said he wants to hear President Duterte talk a comprehensive plan to address the Covid-19 pandemic and how to revive the economy and not about Charter change.
