BACOLOD City – All patients under investigation (PUIs) for coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) in this city have already been discharged.
This was confirmed by Vice Mayor El Cid Familiaran, who chairs the city’s inter-agency task force vs COVID-19.
Familiaran said there are no PUIs admitted at the Emerging Infectious Diseases facility.
Three of them were discharged on Monday while the first of the four isolated in the Department of Health (DOH)-run hospital was released last week after being found negative of COVID-19.
The four were among the eight PUIs confined in tertiary hospitals in the city in the past two weeks.
Drilon said those admitted at the CLMMRH were “discharged in stable condition and with no complications during the course of confinement”.
“Let us praise and thank the Lord that all PUIs were negative for the virus, but it’s not over till it’s over. So let’s continue to be vigilant,” Familiaran said.
He urged the public to verify information through the Department of Health website and stop spreading unverified news./PN
