CALAMBA CITY, Laguna – Due to the increasing number of people impacted by Covid-19 in Cavite province, certain hospitals have declared "full capacity."

This includes the Noveleta MedCare Center, which is Noveleta's only COVID-19 referral hospital. According to the most recent local government data, there are up to 99 current COVID-19 cases in this area.



The St. Dymphna Mega Isolation Facility in Imus City, according to Mayor Emmanuel Maliksi, will soon be at capacity due to the increasing number of COVID-19 cases in the city.

On August 13, the Imus Hospital announced a congestion problem, with ambulances bringing patients lining up in the hospital's Emergency Room.



San Pedro Calungsod Medical Center and Binakayan Hospital and Medical Center, as well as the Kawit Isolation Facility, are all at full capacity, according to the Kawit local administration.

The local government also expressed alarm after it registered 165 active cases of COVID-19 in one day.



According to Mayor Angelo Aguinaldo, this is 54 percent higher compared to 107 active cases recorded in seven days.

Because of this, the Department of Health Center for Health Development Calabarzon continues to encourage the public to bring their acquaintances with asymptomatic or mild cases of COVID-19 to Temporary Treatment and Monitoring Facilities in the region to avoid overcrowding. hospital. - PB, PIA4A
