DOH: Recent COVID-19 case spike insignificant, no need to limit movement

DOH officer-in-charge Dr. Ma. Rosario Vergeire says the recent rise in COVID-19 cases is insignificant and does not warrant Filipinos to limit their movement.

Vergeire noted a 35% increase in daily new cases from March 29 to April 4, but emphasized that as long as individuals are vaccinated and wear masks, there's no need to stay home.

She added that the rise remains insignificant unless hospital admissions also increase.
