MANILA, Philippines — The Department of Health said Tuesday it will provide COVID-19 care kits to vulnerable individuals who are isolating or quarantining at home.

 

The move to distribute COVID-19 home care kits comes nearly two years into the pandemic that has so far killed 52,929 people in the Philippines.

 

In a briefing, DOH Undersecretary Maria Rosario Vergeire said the home care kits—called “Kalinga” kits—will be distributed as soon as possible. The agency is currently drafting guidelines on how to implement the program.
