AllazoHealth, a company that uses artificial intelligence to help pharmaceuticals, payers, and pharmacies improve medication adherence and quality outcomes, announced today that pharmaceutical industry veteran Mark Degatano will be joining the company's Advisory Board. Mr. Degatano has over 35 years of industry experience spanning client, vendor and start-up areas. He currently serves on the advisory boards of several innovative providers in the pharmaceutical industry, and is a leader in developing and commercializing data-based solutions to help companies improve brand performance and grow sales.

"Mark brings a wealth of experience in the pharmaceutical space and with analytics that is incredibly aligned with the value that AllazoHealth provides to the market," commented Devraj Mukherjee, Vice President of Business Development for AllazoHealth. "We're looking forward to leveraging Mark's experience to continue on our growth trajectory."

Prior to joining the AllazoHealth advisory board, Mr. Degatano's professional background included 24 years with Merck where he rose to Vice President of Customer Insights. He was previously Chief Operating Officer of ComSort Inc., a healthcare data analytics company. In addition, he has worked at numerous data and service providers, including Symphony Health, Prognos, IQVIA, and Aptus Health.

"The AllazoHealth approach of using artificial intelligence effectively addresses an important, long-standing problem in patient adherence and engagement," said Mr. Degatano. "I'm confident my experiences on the client and solutions sides will help the company more effectively express the great value their AI capabilities bring to brand performance, and ultimately improves patient engagement."

According to Mr. Degatano, while many suppliers talk "AI", very few can actually demonstrate how it benefits brand marketers. "This shortfall is especially true in the increasingly important ability to drive patient engagement. Over the next few years, there will be a greater focus on AI-based solutions that actually achieve their patient engagement goals. This is where AllazoHealth is already making a significant improvement on behalf of its clients," he concluded.
Mr. Degatano holds a B.A. in mathematics and an M.A. in statistics, both from Boston University. He is joining AllazoHealth's advisory board effective immediately.

SHAWNEE, KAN. (PRWEB) APRIL 09, 2020

The Identification Systems Group (ISG), the nationwide network of local identification system integrators, announced that it has donated $39,000 to Hearts and Hands Minnesota, a charity that provides resources and comfort to families whose children with serious or terminal medical conditions. The funds were raised at the ISG's Annual Spring Meeting where Members and Partners made cash and check donations, as well as purchasing items in a charity silent auction.

"We're honored to help this charity support families facing serious health issues," says Tom Stiles, the Executive Director of the ISG. "Many of these families face financial difficulties taking care of their children with medical needs, often making it hard for them to keep working full-time jobs. The catch is that they either need support to care for their children while they work or need additional funds to cover the lost wages from missing work to care for their kids themselves. Charities like Hearts and Hands Minnesota help fill that resource gap, helping these parents and kids with paying bills, medical transportation, and providing childcare services. And special thanks to our Partner, Identiv, for donating $10,000 of the total through their product promotion campaign."

About Hearts and Hands Minnesota
Our mission is to provide non-medical support services to families from across Minnesota who have, or have had, a child with a life-threatening illness. While they may not be able to change the prognosis of a seriously ill child, they offer support to families during these difficult times. Learn more at http://www.heartsandhandsmn.org.

Special economic zone
soon to rise in Talibon
By ONAD MUNALEM

Municipal honchos in Talibon recently got the approval of the people of barangays Bagacay and Tanghaligue for the plan to develop a special economic zone in the two villages.

   Talibon Mayor Juanario Item told the barangayfolk during the consultative meeting on June 9 and 10 that Governor Erico Aumentado had given him and Councilor Gerson Dulang a task to scout for a conducive site for a special economic zone (SEZ) project.
   Item and Dulang explained how the project will benefit them and solicited their approval to allow the government to buy their properties that will be utilized as the site of the project.
   Among the benefits that the project offers are job opportunities, increased income and improvement in their standard of living, Dulang said.
   Dulang further said that the project's profile was already submitted to the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA).

   At present, many investors from China, Japan, Korea, Malaysia and India have shown interest to pour their capital in the Philippines, particularly in Bohol, according to Dulang.
   The mayor, for his part, told them that he had already thought of the project during his first term as town executive, being included in his development agenda for Talibon.

   "When you have a dream it remains a dream until coupled with action that it becomes a reality," Item told the barangayfolk.
   He explained that the project needs an initial land area of 50 hectares near the shoreline to be expanded towards the upper portion of the barangay.
   The mayor told the affected residents that the project would help reduce poverty.

   Among the development projects that came ahead are the public market and the construction of a commercial center where Alturas Supermarket stands that attracted consumers from neighboring towns, Item cited.
   On the other hand, the mayor also announced that he would declare an area of 700 hectares as seed bank of seaweeds, in preparation for the planned processing plant for seaweeds.

   Item also expressed pride that during his incumbency, he is the only mayor of Bohol who had come up with a Comprehensive Land Use Plan (CLUP) which was later duplicated by town executives.
   During the open forum portion of the consultative meeting, Item explained that the price of properties that the government will buy for the SEZ will be determined by a team tasked to do the assessment on their actual value.
   He also assured that all qualified affected residents will be prioritized in the employment opportunities.
   The mayor also explained that a resettlement program will be in place to take care of those who will be displaced.

   After the forum, Barangay Councilor Desiderio Ludivise moved for the acceptance of the multi-million-peso project, seconded by Barangay Councilor Wilfredo Flores.

TOKYO (PRWEB) APRIL 10, 2020

Cyber Security Cloud announced today that its cloud-based Web Application Firewall (WAF) service has been adopted by over 1,000 companies in Japan.

Background
Cybersecurity in companies is broadly categorized into "Internal Security" and "Web Security," and especially in the field of "Web Security," despite the high risk of personal information leaks due to cyber attacks, companies tend to lack awareness and countermeasures.

Looking at the incidents related to personal information leaks in 2018*1, it was found that eight of the top ten incidents with the largest number of leaks were caused by unauthorized access, and the number of leaks in those eight incidents alone accounted for a total of 2,300,859 leaks, accounting for more than 40% of the total number of personal information leaks (5,613,797).

Looking at the security market as a whole*2, the "Web Security" field is expected to have the highest growth rate, with the WAF (Web Application Firewall) market being driven by SaaS-type products.

Demand is growing against the backdrop of a succession of diversified cyber-attacks such as DDoS attacks and ransomware, and the demand for new installations is expanding not only among large organizations, which had been the focus of demand in the past but also among small and medium-sized enterprises, which have been relatively behind in terms of security measures.

Factors Behind the Cumulative Total No. of Companies that Have Adopted the Cloud-Based WAF "Shadankun" Exceeding 1,000
The cloud-based WAF "Shadankun", which has been adopted by more than 1000 companies and ranks No. 1 in Japan in terms of adoption rate*3, is a web security service that detects and blocks cyber-attacks on websites and web servers.

Recently, Cyneural, an AI engine that uses deep learning to detect attacks, was developed and put into operation. Utilizing an enormous amount of cyber-attack data obtained through the service with the highest adoption rate in Japan, CSC is constantly enhancing its services by being able to detect not only general attacks but also unknown attacks and false positives at high speed.

In addition to such product capabilities, the high level of support provided by CSC as a Web security service from Japan, and the steady growth in their activities to strengthen alliances with sales partners, have contributed to the increase in the number of companies that have adopted Shadankun.

Furthermore, as the number of companies that telecommute or work from home is rapidly increasing, it is expected that offices will become scarce, and the number of cases will increase due to the delay in the detection of cyberattacks. CSC has been quick to respond to this demand and plans to continue to aim to increase the number of companies that have adopted their services.

About Cloud-Based WAF "Shadankun"
Cloud-based WAF "Shadankun" is a web security service that detects and blocks cyber-attacks on websites and web servers by quickly responding to the latest threats utilizing the world's leading cyber threat intelligence team "Cyhorus". Also, it has been ranked No. 1 in Japan in terms of adoption rate.*3

About Cyber Security Cloud, Inc.
With an aim to create a secure cyberspace that people around the world can use safely, Cyber Security Cloud provides web application security services worldwide using the world's leading cyber threat intelligence and AI technology. CSC is also certified as the 7th AWS WAF Managed Rules Seller in the world by AWS (Amazon Web Service) which boasts a 47.8% global cloud market share. *4

As a leading cybersecurity company, CSC plans to continue to strive to improve and develop new technologies and aim to be a company that can deliver effective security solutions to contribute to the information revolution.

With COVID-19 bringing unprecedented challenges to enterprises and consumers alike, new research from call verification and fraud detection company, Next Caller, shows a worrisome increase in call traffic from bad actors looking to cash in on new vulnerabilities created by the global pandemic.

The company's Fraud & COVID-19 Report: Preparing For Waves of Fraud and Consumer Confusion found that during the week of March 16 -- which coincided with the time that many Americans started staying home to curb the spread of COVID-19 -- there was an extraordinary strain placed on contact centers operated by Fortune 500 banking clients. While the rapid rise in call volumes may not be entirely surprising, Next Caller has uncovered a far more alarming trend.

Internal data reveals a massive increase in call spoofing, the primary technique phone criminals use to trick businesses into automatically matching them with customer accounts. While data suggests that consumer calling may ebb and flow weekly, suspicious or high risk calls have increased unabated. After just 3 weeks, high-risk calls are up 28% on average, outpacing the growth rate of overall call traffic-- suggesting that as concerned customers call in waves, hundreds of thousands of potentially fraudulent attacks pummel contact centers in their wake.

To shed light on the potential impact that this influx of criminal activity could have on both the enterprise and the general public, Next Caller combined internal data with a research study administered to over 1,000 Americans. Amongst the many findings, the study found that 32% of Americans believe that they have already been targeted by some form of fraud related to COVID-19.

With millions awaiting financial relief from the government's $2Trillion stimulus package, the activity seen to date may be the precursor to an impending tsunami of fraud aimed at stealing money and information from individuals. Widespread anxiety and confusion only threaten to exacerbate the problem by providing ample cover for fraudsters to stress-test contact center security systems.

"It's no surprise that fraudsters are exploiting a chaotic circumstance, that's the playbook," says Next Caller CEO Ian Roncoroni. "What is particularly dangerous is the timing and the broadening scope of the schemes. People are understandably confused and distracted, and so they may be more likely to let down their guard, especially when attacked from new and different directions. And while businesses are desperate to provide relief, contact centers don't stand a chance when criminals can successfully pose as customers. It's the perfect storm for fraud."

Findings from the report include:

During the week of March 16-23, two Fortune 500 financial institutions saw call volumes spike over 35%. Telecommunications companies saw similar volume increases.
In the most drastic case, during Week 3 one financial institution saw call volumes increase to almost 60% above Pre-COVID-19 levels. Call volume across all clients closed Week 3 up over 15% from traffic prior to Week 1.
Weeks 1-3 show a steady rise in high-risk calls disproportionate to the ebb and flow of overall call traffic patterns. After 3 weeks, high-risk calls are up nearly 30% without a decline during that time period.
At the same time, nearly 1-in-3 Americans (32%) say that they believe they've already been targeted by fraud or scams related to COVID-19.
52% of Americans are more concerned about being victimized by fraud than they normally would be due to COVID-19 related fraud and scams.
Nearly 1-in-3 Americans are "not at all confident" that businesses and government institutions are taking the necessary measures.
The full report can be viewed here.

Recently crossing a 1 Billion calls analyzed milestone, Next Caller's fraud detection platform uses machine learning and extensive telephone network data insights to protect leading Fortune 100 enterprises across the financial services, telecommunications, and healthcare.

Suntuity AirWorks (https://suntuityairworks.com), through its collaboration with Suntuity University's AirWorks Academy (https://suntuityuniversity.com/airworks-academy/), is offering free webinars to introduce public safety officials to drone technologies that can enable them in their fight against the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Leveraging Suntuity University's Learning Management Systems and Suntuity AirWorks' enterprise equipment support teams (https://suntuityairworks.com/enterprise/), the webinars will enable public safety officials and first responders to take immediate advantage of the safety and efficiency of drone technologies and services during the pandemic.

The free webinars are a part of the Suntuity Group Pledge offerings (http://suntuitygroup.com/suntuity-cares/) to give back to communities when they need it the most, and help them work safer and smarter by ensuring public safety personnel have access to the same lifesaving drone technologies used across Europe and Asia to effectively flatten the coronavirus infection curve.

"We created these webinars to enable our heroes on the front lines of this pandemic to leverage drone technologies readily available today to effectively fight the coronavirus pandemic while minimizing potential for harm to themselves," said Marc Pretorius, Head of Training for Suntuity AirWorks. "The services that drones can provide, from aerial sanitization to thermal disease inspection, are too important to ignore. Now is the time to act quickly in order to make sure our cities and towns have the tools and knowledge they need in order to save lives in the face of this growing pandemic."

RXA has engaged over 150 Domo projects for over 80 companies with a 4.5-week average time to value for all projects engaged.

BOSTON (PRWEB) APRIL 10, 2020

Benefits Science Technologies (BST) has released a modeling tool that projects the financial impact COVID-19 will have on self-funded health plans. Utilizing its industry-leading predictive and prescriptive analytics, and led by Chief Actuary Mike Morrow, Benefits Science has developed a Cash Flow Impact Model (available at http://www.benefitsscience.com) that allows users to tailor scenarios to their populations under various assumptions, such as severity of infection rates, longevity of the crisis, and percentage of services deferred to future months. The tool provides an important first step in helping employers plan for future health plan cost changes.

"Nobody can predict exactly how long this epidemic will last or how many people will be affected," said Stephen Sofoul, MBA, CEO & President, "As the disease progresses and treatments are better known, cost projections will shift. This tool provides employers and their consultants with an easy way to model multiple scenarios – in order to understand the potential range of results."

For employers with self-funded health plans, these challenges include some potentially large changes in expected claims for the remainder of 2020, and likely beyond. Claims are expected to increase as members seek testing and treatment for the disease at urgent care facilities, emergency rooms, and inpatient hospitals. However, some plans will experience lower than expected claims for a period as elective procedures are put on hold or abandoned. BST's interactive tool shows the impact of COVID-19 under different scenarios, providing the expected change to both incurred and paid claims costs when measured against the budgeted cost. This helps employers plan for these cost changes.

BST's Data Science and Actuarial Science teams have developed additional tools to help better score risk and optimize plan design factoring these unprecedented new conditions.

Technology / 2020 SOC 2 Type 1 examination
April 11, 2020, 03:53:19 AM
NEW YORK (PRWEB) APRIL 10, 2020

INVISR, a business technology and consulting firm, today announced the successful completion of their 2020 SOC 2 Type 1 examination. The achievement reflects the organization's commitment to data security, while giving them a competitive edge in their industry.

The initiative was driven by the company's desire "to certify what we have always done, security-wise, to increase the level of comfort for our potential customers," explained Jeb Hunsinger, INVISR Vice President of Sales. While the company has voluntarily maintained compliance for several years, they chose to undergo their first formal examination to provide a higher level of independent assurance.

When evaluating software solutions such as Polystack – INVISR's low-code application development platform – potential customers often request proof of compliance to ensure the secure handling of their confidential data. Having obtained a formal SOC 2 report that outlines their controls, INVISR can now meet these market demands.

INVISR was audited against the AICPA Trust Services Criteria for Security and Confidentiality. The examination provided assurance regarding the design of controls placed into operation as of a point in time.

The examination was completed by the professional and independent third-party audit firm, 360 Advanced, Inc. / Hiestand Brand Loughran, P.A.

About INVISR
INVISR is a New York based technology and consulting firm, focused on providing a wide variety of digital solutions across various industries and platforms. INVISR created Polystack; a low-code application development platform that radically simplifies digital transformation.

A leading third-party data center maintenance company, Service Express, has debuted their End-of-Life (EOL) & End-of-Service-Life (EOSL) database. With this tool, users can quickly find accurate EOL and EOSL dates for over 19,000 data center hardware models.

Service Express customers have experienced difficulties in finding EOL and EOSL dates for equipment. The EOL & EOSL Database makes it simpler for users to search for the dates based on the product name, model or part number. This information is important as it influences IT decisions about original equipment manufacturers (OEM) and third-party maintenance strategies, hardware refreshes and asset life cycles.

"Accurate EOL and EOSL dates across multiple vendors can be difficult to find and often sneak up on buyers in the form of hardware refresh calls from the OEM," says Chief Marketing Officer Joshua Leatherman. "This tool is a one-stop resource where users can better understand the next steps if their equipment is approaching EOL or EOSL."

The EOL & EOSL Database is available for use on the Service Express website. Visit the database now: https://serviceexpress.com/resources/eol-eosl-database/

About Service Express

As a leading third-party maintenance (TPM) provider, Service Express specializes in onsite data center maintenance for server, storage and network equipment. Service Express partners with IT professionals to reduce costs and optimize infrastructure strategy. Founded in 1993, Service Express maintains multivendor data center equipment for healthcare, manufacturing, education, finance, government, technology and other Fortune 500 companies worldwide.

Hot Tomali Communications and AmericanEHR have launched a website to help users find COVID-19 testing sites across the US and Canada. Complete with searchable maps and filters, the website is powered with a set of verified COVID-19 testing locations that have been identified by a growing team of volunteers. Testing location managers can add and/or claim their profile in order to update users on availability, hours, and criteria for COVID-19 testing. The website can be found at HealthAlerts.io.

Health Alerts COVID-19 Testing allows users to submit new testing locations and real time updates through reviews and pictures as a means to crowdsource rapidly changing test site information.

Further, HealthAlerts.io connects users to self-assessment tools based on their geographic location. Self-assessments are generally the first step in determining a person's eligibility for testing. For example some test sites require patients to make an appointment, have a physician referral, or be a member of a particular health organization in order to qualify for a COVID-19 test.

Ensuring users have access to the most trusted COVID-19 information is critically important. To achieve this HealthAlerts.io also provides real-time health alert bulletins from CDC, HHS, FDA, WHO, Health Canada, HealthLinkBC, and ECDC.

No personal data is required for users to access the Health Alerts COVID-19 Testing tool. To submit reviews or to claim and manage COVID-19 test locations, users have the option to create an account.

Accompanying apps for iOS and Android will be available for download in the Apple App Store and on Google Play shortly.

"In light of the COVID-19 pandemic we made the call three weeks ago to build a tool to help fight this virus (our self-imposed version of the Defence Production Act)" says Thomas Stringham, Founder & CEO of Hot Tomali and AmericanEHR. "We leveraged technology from previous projects (Pooch.pet and AmericanEHR Health Alerts) which allowed us to develop a solution really rapidly. This tool can help reduce the burden on frontline healthcare workers. This is how we flatten the curve"

Testing broadly is highly critical to be able to identify and isolate people with the COVID-19 Coronavirus. Serological tests have been developed to identify COVID-19 antibodies—this can allow people displaying immunity to return to work or reduce the social and economic lockdown restrictions that are hampering the global economy.

OROQUIETA CITY, Misamis Occidental, January 1 2012 -- Pagsalbar sa maayong kaugmaon sa kabataan sa ilang barangay ang usa sa dakong gilantaw ug gihatagan sa pagtagad sa mga opisyales sa barangay Tabok Borte sakop sa dakbayan sa Oroquieta City.

Kini ang hinungdan nga mipahigayon ang barangay sa usa ka symposium kabahin sa droga bag-ohay ubos sa pagdumala sa mga kadagkuan sa sangguniang kabataan sa nasangpit nga barangay.

Sumala pa ni Kapitan Alfredo Bolleno Jr. nga dugay na kini nilang gilaraw gumikan sa ilang nakita nga adunay nay mga kabataan sa iyang barangay nga nagumon na sa ginadiling druga.

Og kini nga kahimtang ang ilang gilantaw ug gibuhatan sa lakang nga dili na mokuyanap pag-ayo sa ilang barangay pinaagi sa paghatag ug edukasyon sa kabatan-onan sa ilang barangay sa mga kadaot nga ikahatag sa paggamit sa mga ginadiling droga.

Subay niini, gikalipay ni Kapitan Bolleno ang tatawng pagtubag ug reaksyon sa mga kabatan-onan ug mga ginikanan kabahin sa ilang pagpahigayon sa drug symposium diha sa ilang barangay, sanglit nakita nilang mga opisyales sa barangay ang kadasig sa kabatan-onan nga maminaw ug masayod sa mga kasayuran kabahin sa ginadiling druga ug usab ang kadasig sa mga ginikanan sa pagsuporta sa ilang paningkamot alang sa paglikay sa kabatan-onan sa paggamit niini.

Gani gidason ni Tabok Norte SK Chairwoman Janice Aguilo nga adunay mga asawa nga buot usab nilang patambungon usab ang ilang mga bana sa nasangpit nga symposium sa droga aron usab kini masayod ug ma-edukar sa mga kadaot o epekto sa paggamit sa bisan unsang ilegal nga mga droga. (PIO/PIA-10)

LAOAG CITY, Jan. 1 2012 (PIA) -- Mistulang Luneta sa dami ng tao ang paligid ng Provincial Capitol ng Ilocos Norte pagsapit ng gabi sa pagdagsa ng mga lokal na turista.

Naglalakihan at naggagandahan kasi ang tanawin sa paligid nito, lalong-lalo na ang pagningning ng mga ilaw na nakasabit sa lahat ng sulok ng kapitolyo.

Ang kapitolyo mismo ay maituturing nang agaw-pansin sa pagkakaroon nito ng dim-spot light na nakatutok sa kabuuan nito pagsapit ng gabi. Nakakaengganyo itong pagmasdan.

Sa mga puno naman, may mga nakasabit ding korteng ibon na malalaki na siyang nagsisilbing ilaw sa palibot ng kapitolyo. Sila ang nagbibigay liwanag sa kabuuan nito.

Sino naman ang hindi maaaliw sa mga higanteng halaman na ang mga dahon nito ay umiilaw, nakapuwesto ito sa magkabilang gilid ng kapitolyo. Mga higanteng halaman na para bang nananahon ng kulay lilac na diyamante sa kislap.

Hindi ka din maliligaw ng oras habang namamasyal ka dito sapagkat may built-in giant clock na hinulma gamit ang 'garden soil' at 'bermuda' glass. Sa paligid nito'y may mga bulaklak na eksakto para sa picture taking.

Ang kambal naman sa 'fountain' sa harap ng kapitolyo na may sukat halos dalawampung talampakan (20 feet) ay nakakapagparelaks sa buong katauhan sa tunog na agos ng masagang tubig nito.

At nalulula naman ang mga tao sa higanteng 'Christmas Tree' na tinatayang may sukat na mahigit-kumulang dalawampu't anim na talampakan (26 feet), dinesenyuhan ito ng mga bulaklak na korteng poinsettia at nakabitan ng mga ilaw na mistulang naghuhulugan.

Lahat ng bumibisita dito ay kakikitaan ng galak at pagkamangha sa larawan ng kapitolyo. Karamihan sa kanila ay nangunguha ng litrato.

"Hindi mo talaga maiiwasang hindi tumigil at kumuha ng picture kapag napadaan ka dito, maliban sa maliwanag dahil sa dami ng ilaw, napaka-relaxing at maluwang ang paligid, tamang-tama para sa bonding ng pamilya," patunay ni Jennifer Ramos sa kanyang pamamasyal kasama ang kanyang pamilya.

Kumakatok ang COVID-19 sa iyong pintuan. Pilit na pumapasok upang kumitil ng mga pangarap. 

Ngunit hindi natin papayagan na ang sakit na ito, sa ating bansa ay magpahirap!

MAGMATIYAG. Maging maalam sa mga nangyayari.

MAGHANDA. Gawin ang mga hakbang upang sakit ay matuldukan.

MAKIISA. Tulungan ang isa't-isa, ibangon ang kapwa.

Mahal ko ang Pilipinas! Hindi ako magkakanya at ako'y susunod sa mga payo ng may mas nakakaalam.

Facts and Trivia / Mass Gathering as Defined by WHO
April 10, 2020, 05:49:37 AM
High profile international sporting events such as the Olympics or World Cups as well as international religious events such as the Hajj count as mass gatherings. However, lower profile conferences and events can also meet WHO's definition of a mass gathering. An event counts as a "mass gatherings" if the number of people it brings together is so large that it has the potential to strain the planning and response resources of the health system in the community where it takes place. You need to consider the location and duration of the event as well as the number of participants. For example, if the event takes place over several days in a small island state where the capacity of the health system is quite limited then even an event with just a few thousand participants could place a big strain on the health system and then be considered a "mass gathering" event. Conversely, if the event is held in a big city in a country with a large, well-resourced health system and lasts just a few hours, the event may not constitute a "mass gathering" event.

Laging Handa Network Briefing on Radyo Pilipinas:
Lapu-Lapu City Mayor Junard "Ahong" Tan:

- On COVID cases update: Good news ngayon dahil yung second patient natin, lalabas siya mamaya naka-fully-recovered na siya. So yung three confirmed cases natin, dalawa yung recovered na, isa na lang ang natira. Hopefully na yung isa mag-rerecover na naman para ma-zero na tayo. At this time, yung PUI natin ay bumaba at meron na lang 11. Yung PUM, umabot ng 191 persons. Wala pa tayong namatay dito sa lugar natin. Yung third patient natin, bago lang this week, nung Monday na-confirm na positive siya.

- On supply of food: Ang lugar natin is a combination of industrial kasi marami tayong economic zone ditto, merong mga 100,000+ workers and our bread and butter in the city is the tourism. Yung mga supply ng pagkain natin ay galing sa Cebu. Meron tayong mga isda dito sa lugar natin pero hindi masyadong marami. Pero in terms of supply ng tao, kasi ine-extend natin ang ECQ ng two week hanggang April 28, bale yung budget na binigay namin para sa bigas ng mga tao, binigyan namin ng isang sako bawat pamilya and ito ay hanggang end of April itong supply natin.

- On strict implementation of quarantine pass: Araw-araw yung mga pulis natin nakahuli ng mga lumalabas dala yung q-pass nila na walang binibili, naglalakwatsa lang. Nung isang araw meron tayong nahuli na 200+ na naglalakwatsa lang. Ang ginagawa natin ngayon, palagi tayong mag-remind. Matigas talaga ang ulo ng mga Pilipino na maski araw-araw mong sasabihin, lalabas talaga. So ngayon meron lang mga doon sa barangay level na kailangang i-correct yung sa q-pass nila. Kasi ang usapan yung q-pass ng barangay dapat may seal kasi makokopya 'pag wala, pwedeng ma-scan ng tao. Pangalawa, dapat may pangalan kasi yung iba wala, at dapat may control number. We called the attention of the barangays and we are giving them three days to correct. Hopefully today, ma-okay na lahat ng mga q-pass. Sinabi na natin sa mga tao ng paulit-ulit na ang mga PNP, AFP, force multiplier natin ay sisita talaga sa kanila kapag lalabas na walang ginagawa. [pia-aa]
