[DENIALS AND DELUSIONS: On Saturation of Hospitals]

Hospitals are bursting at the seams yet Malacañang remains adamant at denying the problems.

We have to deal with COVID-19. We have to beat this pandemic. But definitely not by dancing through its daily progression, led by an inutile government that doesn't even know how to keep in step with a spreading pandemic.

Concrete contingencies should be laid on the table. The DOH should not be passively waiting for all Metro Manila hospitals to be overwhelmed before taking actions and making adjustments.

If the country is to combat COVID-19, it should rid itself of this insolence. Because the other face of this insolence is impunity and the wanton disregard for rights. Doctor-shaming is but one manifestation of this impunity.

Fight insolence. End impunity. Stop doctor-shaming.

[The Insolence of Power]

We strongly condemn Cebu Governor Gwendolyn Garcia’s public shaming of two doctors who criticized a recently released memorandum that required employees to do “tuob” (steam inhalation) as part of the province’s effort to fight COVID-19.

It is an insolence that is even more dangerous than the current pandemic because it puts people at the mercy of those who do not have their welfare in mind.
