Update on Quezon City COVID-19 Cases Amid the Global Pandemic Now
QUEZON CITY COVID-19 CASES – The total cases of coronavirus recorded in Quezon City is now over 2,000.
The Philippines is currently on a crisis due to coronavirus or COVID-19. This disease was first recorded in China last December 2019. Wuhan City in the province of Hubei was locked for more than two (2) months due to the outbreak.
However, starting January 2020, several other countries started recording their initial coronavirus cases. The increase on the global cases continued and the World Health Organization declared the disease as pandemic – its effect is far beyond what was expected of it.
In the Philippines, community quarantines are implemented to curb the spread of the disease. Many non-essential businesses had temporarily stopped their operation so the people will stay at their homes.
The entire Luzon and most parts of Visayas and Mindanao were previously under an Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ). Now, most areas in the country are under a General Community Quarantine while Metro Manila, Cebu, and Laguna are under a Modified ECQ.
One of the areas that is high risk for coronavirus is Quezon City. Based on a report on ABS-CBN News, the Quezon City COVID-19 cases is now at 2,028 after its local government confirmed 16 new cases of the disease.
Out of the total number, 732 are active cases. Another fatality was recently recorded bringing the death toll to 170. According to the report, 780 of the coronavirus patients have recovered from the disease.
The QC Epidemiology and Surveillance Unit and District Health Offices have validated 1,682 of the total cases. Furthermore, 1,852 of the patients have addresses in the city.
Currently, the fight against COVID-19 continues. Everyone is encouraged to stay at home, wear face mask when going outdoors, and exhibit social distancing.
