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

Monty Mendigoria, a Catholic and the president of the Skateboard Association of the Philippines Inc. writes an open letter to the Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte. Mendigoria, it seems, is worried about the president giving our country to China. Monty Mendigoria and President Rodrigo Duterte / Composite photos from Facebook and northboundasia Church issues He started by telling the president that Catholics hear mass because they believe in God, not because of the priests. And if ever they give donations, it is from the own free will, and not anything that was imposed or something. Some just want to be a good instrument while they walk the earth. So he advised the president that if he does not believe in God then he should let those who believe Him be. Stop attacking the Church and start focussing on the real issue.

Franchise Renewal ng ABS-CBN muling isinantabi ng Kamara

Photo from Google Images Muling naisantabi sa Kamara ang panukalang Franchise renewal ng broadcasting network na ABS-CBN. Sa pinakahuling pagdinig ng House Committee on Legislative Franchises na pinamumunuan ni Palawan Cong. Franz Chicoy Alvarez, hindi pinansin ang inihaing franchise renewal application ng Kapamilya network. Ito’y sa kabila ng limang (5) panukalang batas na nakasalang hinggil dito. Nabatid na mas nabigyan pa ng pansin ang prangkisa ng iba pang kumpanya kabilang ang First United Broadcasting Corporation, Lanao Del Norte Electric Cooperative, Bicol Light at Power Corporation kahit pa may pagtutol ang ilang miyembro ng Franchise panel. Paliwanag naman ni Alvarez, naunang asikasuhin ang franchise application ng mga nabanggit na kumpanya alinsunod na rin sa Section 48 ng House rules. Pinamamadali aniya ng nasabing patakaran ang pagtalakay sa mga panukalang lehislasyon na inaprubahan na ng nakalipas ng Kongreso subalit bigong maging ganap na batas....
