Manila’s 6 district hospitals to accept severe, critical COVID-19 cases only -- Mayor Isko
Six public hospitals in Manila will now only admit patients with severe or critical COVID-19 cases, as announced by Manila Mayor Isko Moreno.
This policy change aims to ensure that hospital resources are used for their original purpose, allowing patients with other serious illnesses like cancer, heart disease, and those needing dialysis or giving birth to receive proper attention.
The affected hospitals include Gat Andres Bonifacio Memorial Hospital, Ospital ng Tondo, Justice Abad Santos Medical Center, Ospital ng Sampaloc, Sta. Ana Hospital, and the New Ospital ng Maynila.
Patients with mild COVID-19 symptoms who also have underlying health conditions will still be admitted to these facilities.
Individuals with very mild or asymptomatic COVID-19 cases are advised to isolate at home if space is available.
