MANILA, Philippines — The Department of the Interior and Local Government urged local government units Friday to reinforce measures against COVID-19 in an effort to push back against the Health Department’s projected increase in cases until the end of the year.

 

This comes after the Department of Health said there was a possibility of over 10,600 daily COVID-19 cases in Metro Manila by October, which Interior Secretary Benhur Abalos called “a clear warning that all LGUs should take seriously.” 

 

In a statement sent to reporters Friday afternoon, Abalos said that LGUs should stand guard on cases in their respective localities to mitigate the possibility of a surge in the coming months which can even extend to other parts of the country until the end of the year.
