MANILA, Philippines — The Philippine General Hospital, one of the country’s main COVID-19 hospitals, is seeing a “steady” increase in COVID-19 admissions, its spokesperson said Monday.

 

From only 30 COVID-19 patients on December 25, PGH now has 116, the hospital's spokesperson Jonas del Rosario said in an interview with TeleRadyo.

 

“Noong Pasko 30 lang patients namin. Biglang sumipa after one week. Halos four times ‘yung bilang,” Del Rosario said, adding 10 to 15 patients are being admitted daily in the COVID-19 referral center in the past three days.
