MANILA -- Authorities continue to strictly monitor arriving passengers at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA), in line with the mysterious illness reported in China, a doctor from the Department of Health's Bureau of Quarantine (DOH-BOQ) said Friday.
"We implement strict monitoring, surveillance of arriving passengers, especially those from China. We also have two new units of thermal scanners each at NAIA Terminals 1, 2 and 3," Dr. Noel Ramirez told the Philippine News Agency (PNA) in an interview.
He said that, during his duty so far, the BOQ officers have not recorded any suspected case of the mysterious pneumonia-like illness.
Ramirez clarified that a different doctor is on duty at NAIA per day. In case there will be a suspected case, it would be the BOQ's main office in Quezon City which would report about it to the public, he added.
