Maguindanao gaining headway in fight vs COVID-19
Maguindanao is seeing positive progress in its battle against Covid-19, with a high recovery rate and a decrease in new cases.
As of early September, Maguindanao had a total of 100 confirmed Covid-19 cases since March, with 94 recoveries, resulting in a 94% recovery rate.
A significant achievement for the province was the recovery of 34 police officers from the disease on September 4, which also led to the lifting of a localized lockdown.
Despite the progress, five new cases were recently reported, including a town councilor from South Upi, a municipal government employee, and individuals from Pandag, Parang, and Datu Odin Sinsuat.
The newly reported cases are currently isolated and in stable condition.
Across the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM), there were nine new cases reported on Monday, bringing the total to 726 confirmed cases, with 192 active and 514 recoveries, and a total of 21 deaths.
