SINILOAN, Laguna - The Siniloan local government temporarily closed the Rural Health Unit after nine of its staff tested positive for Covid-19.

As a measure to curb the spread of the disease, the implementation of a week-long lockdown scheduled to end this coming Sunday, September 26th began on 12th September.



Their telecare services will serve as a temporary consultation procedure.

Medicines and other medical necessities, especially oxygen, will be delivered from 10 a.m. to 12 noon.



Meanwhile, residents who have symptoms of Covid-19 and need to undergo the RT-PCR Test will be assisted by referral to another hospital.

“Kami po ay humihingi ng paumanhin at pang-unawa sa pagkaantala ng mga serbisyo, ngunit ito po ay para na din sa proteksyon at kapakanan ng nakakararami at ng komunidad,” Siniloan RHU said.



“Humihiling din po kami ng panalangin para sa mabilisang paggaling ng aming mga kasamahan,” the RHU said. (with reports from MO, FC, PIA4A)
