San Juan City Mayor Francis Zamora said on Friday that confirmed coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases in the city had risen to 69.
In a Super Radyo dzBB interview, Zamora also said that of those cases, 59 were in stable condition while the ten others had unfortunately died.
The San Juan City Mayor added that some of the 59 cases were either being looked after in different hospitals across Metro Manila, or were home quarantined because most hospitals were full.


 He also revealed that most of the confirmed COVID-19 patients in San Juan were between 50 to 80-years-old.
"Depende rin talaga 'yan sa katawan ng pasyente. They are now all being treated, but it really depends talaga 'yung katawan ng tao. Nakikita kasi natin base sa datos natin, karamihan sa tinatamaan ng COVID-19 ay between 50 to 80-years-old," Zamora said.
The San Juan government had turned the city’s science high school into an overflow quarantine facility for persons under investigation (PUI) of COVID-19.


 The facility was being managed by the San Juan Medical Center and by the city health office.
Meanwhile, Zamora emphasized that the local government of San Juan was ready to come to the assistance of residents.
"Sa ngayon, nakahanda tayo hanggang isang buwan. Ngunit kung kukulangin ito, we are prepared naman to allocate even more [resources]," Zamora said. — Anna Felicia Bajo/DVM, GMA News

This remark was shared via a Facebook post which was subsequent to Arroyo's recent jump from Pampanga 2nd district representative to Speaker of the House of Representatives this Monday. Arroyo, who was previously  detained for her alleged graft and corruption during her presidency, rose to the position just moments before President Rodrigo Duterte's State of the Nation Address, replacing Speaker Pantaleon Alvarez. "Lets just call it what it is and not make any heroes or martyrs out of flawed (possibly criminal) politicians. GMA as Speaker is political expediency. Speaker Alvarez, while good at passing the president's legislation, was hampered by bad relations ...

Marcos family gives contradictory statements about Bongbong Marcos COVID-19 test result

Tila magkakaiba ang pahayag ng mga kapamilya ni Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr ., 62,  tungkol  sa COVID-19 test result nito. Base sa lumabas na pahayag ni Bongbong mismo kahapon, March 26, nagpa-test na ang dating senador ngunit hindi pa niya nakukuha ang resulta. Sabi ni Bongbong: "As my sister said, a few days ago I was feeling a little under the weather and as a result went to get checked. We are still waiting for the results." Pero sa hiwalay na statement ng misis niyang si Atty. Liza Araneta Marcos, lumabas na raw ang resulta ng COVID-19 test ni Bongbong. Negatibo raw ito. Ayon pa kay Atty. Liza, hindi lang si Bongbong ang nagpa-COVID-19 test, kundi pati silang pamilya at ang buong staff nila, at lahat sila ay negatibo. Maliban dito, isang araw lang ay nakuha na raw nila ang resulta. Bahagi ng statement ni Atty. Liza: "Yesterday, we had ourselves and our entire staff tested for COVID-19. Fortunately, we all tes...
