Quezon City reports 16 new Covid-19 deaths

The Quezon City Health Department (QCHD) reported 16 new deaths due to coronavirus disease 2019 on Thursday, bringing the total to 50.  The number of patients who recovered increased by 1 to 27 during the same period.

Many residents panicked with the sudden surge of Covid-19 deaths, worried also by their dwindling financial coffers in the wake of the April 30 extension of the Luzon-wide enhanced community quarantine.

Agreeing with the President’s decision to prolong the ECQ health wise, they urged the government to provide them with a sustainable and prompt delivery of financial, food and other non-food assistance to cover for their lack of resources and make them survive the crisis.

The Department of Health (DOH) reported 670 confirmed COVID-19 cases in the city but the count provided by the Quezon City Epidemiology and Surveillance Unit (QCESU) and District Health Offices stood at 557.
