Wazzup Pilipinas: Struggling but surviving amid the Pandemic

Wazzup Pilipinas!?

Because of almost next to zero events happening due to the never ending quarantines of diverse classifications brought upon us by this government due to their poor response to the pandemic, it is with thanks that my blog site is still doing well. 

An average of 200k monthly views is not bad at all. We could have done better if only our country is back to normal...or should I say, back to "better normal" since we could actually do a lot better if we could get rid of the scums of the government.

Though I do need to work harder and smarter despite of the everyday worries and concerns escalated by these politicians who are now seemingly busier campaigning for their 2022 government position slot, instead of focusing on solutions to resolve our needs to effectively go against the challenges created by this virus. 

Also, the news of several "whiffs of corruption" being discovered plaguing the Duterte government, is alarming. This government is not only credit-grabbing projects initiated by the previous administrations, but they are also twisting facts to steer the focus of our fellow Filipinos away from their own atrocities which they couldn't sensibly explain in order to save themselves from scrutiny. Their paid trolls are already working overtime and in full blast, to misinform and confuse the Filipinos.

Huwag po tayong magpaloko sa buladas ni Duterteng nawawala sa wisyo. Kulang na lang ay ma-admit yan sa mental hospital for his inflattering lunatic behavior.

I had to evolve WazzupPilipinas.com into more of a news site, including political opinions, instead of the usual events coverage, presscons, food reviews, etc., because we hardly have offline activities mainly due to the dreaded virus which is scaring most of us thus keeping ourselves confined more in the safety of our homes.

There is a need to thwart the bad intentions, activities and plans of the Duterte administration, otherwise we will coninue to suffer in their hands especially if they get seats, either by cheating or widespread misinformation dissemmination, in the 2022 election.

Waxzup Pilipinas will continue to be vigilant to help in countering their nasty deeds.

We should not let them get away with evil.

The IATF is clearly clueless in their pandemic response strategies

Wazzup Pilipinas!?

The IATF is making up a bunch of "palabok terms and lockdown variations to feel like they’re actually doing something effective.

May bagong guidelines at restrictions ulit? granular lockdown? Does the IATF realize that they're only making people more confused with all these terminologies na hindi naman nila madefine nang maayos?

DOH reports 20,310 new cases today, the 2nd highest daily tally since the pandemic started ⚠️

DOH also announces 193 deaths.

The 27.4% positivity rate is the 3rd highest since testing data became available ‼️

The 158,994 active cases are the highest since April 17. 

From the data , we can discern ‘that DOH, IATF and @ntfcovid19ph have no clear diagnosis to curb the cases ; high positivity rate due to low testings. 

Low testings - less contact tracings = more transmission ! 

It’s simple.  

But nobody’s listening. Thus we all suffer.

The Philippines has more than 2 million COVID 19 cases. It took only 4 months (April to August) to double the cases from 1 million to 2 million.

And we still have Duque as DOH Secretary. Ted Herbosa as consultant of the IATF. Duterte as President.

Kelan na people power?

This administration does not plan to solve the pandemic. They have 0% incentive to do so. 

They just plan to keep the infection rate high enough but not collapsing the healthcare system so they could keep everyone under control of the IATF. 

But watch them fail miserably.

The healthcare system is breaking yet IATF recommends lifting travel bans to 10 countries

Wazzup Pilipinas!?

“What we have been fearing to happen has already happened. Our healthcare system can no longer handle our COVID-19 cases,” Dr. Maricar Limpin, convenor of the Healthcare Professional Alliance Against COVID-19, said.

This is true.. Yung malaking government hospital dito sa amin, nag emergency hiring ng nurses sa covid ward, kasi ang dami na ng pasyente. Pami-pamilya ang nasa isolation areas sa hospital. Lahat symptomatic. Unlike before na isa lang nagpopositive sa bahay, ngayon, ubusan na. 

But the DOH and IATF are saying differently and deciding against reality...Ang pinaka-kawawa dito eh yung mga pasyente.

I hope the DoH can straighten out its figures. Kapag sila ang nagsalita, parang everything is under control. Pero pag pinakinggan mo naman ang private hospitals and doctors, uma ARAY na sila sa hirap. Ano ba talaga DoH? 

There is no healthcare facility if there are no healthcare workers. That is the truth.

But when "talk to the people" happens, it's nothing but grown men patting themselves on the back?   Good job DOH, good job President, good job build-build-build, good job IATF,...the country handled Covid very well.  Now what??? 

This is the result when those who are in position fail to speak out against the root cause of the problem. Ironic since they are the doctors. They would not even speak up against the face shield requirement when it's been exposed as nothing but official racket.

Pandemic is the government's business.. Remember the reason why they dropped the ball at hindi natuloy bumili ng Pfizer vaccine nung una because of who knows? Heto pala,  medical supplies ay overpriced.. plus Sinovac needs them then.  Now more money for the government,  tapos i-oopen ang travel restrictions pala para magkaroon tayo ng Mu variant?

"President Duterte has approved the recommendation of the IATF to lift the travel restrictions on 10 countries effective September 6, 2021, presidential spokesperson Harry Roque said."

The IATF recommendation is to lift current travel restrictions on India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, United Arab Emirates, Oman, Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia starting Monday, September 6.

IATF recommends to lift current travel restrictions

IATF approves granular lockdown starting with NCR, even if we’re currently at 20k+ new cases daily and 28% positivity rate.

From one stupid idea to the next! The IATF IS ON A ROLL SINCE MARCH 2020!

IATF is living up to its motto: "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again but expecting a different result."

The IATF is a waste of time and money! They shouldn't be contemplating if we will ease quarantine classification when our country is facing 20K cases per day. Once again, it will be our healthcare industry that will immensely suffer from this! 

We are losing because we are choosing economy vs health without realizing that economy will never rebound when people are sick and dying.

The government lifted travel restrictions on 10 countries..and yet the people of the Philippines need to go through a lot travel restrictions & travel requirements visiting other places in our own country. 

Bakit kaya ganoon? Hindi na nga tayo magkanda ugaga sa pagpigil ng local transmissions, dadagdagan pa nila?

Sabaw na ba sila? Kailangan i manage local transmission tapos mag oopen pa sa ibang countries? Are they out of their minds?

Is that a smart move considering hospitals are filled to the brim and Filipinos are asked to stay home? Welcome welcome welcome one and all to the Philippines?

It's SUICIDE!!! Ganoon ba ka desperate na kumita ng pera ang gobyernong ito eh hindi pa mai-stabilize ang sitwasyon dito sa bansa natin?! Babagsak talaga tayo niyan sa ginagawa nila!

Sorry na lang po bawal daw kayo magreklamo sabi ni Teddybird at ng mga DDS. Yang mga ganyan ay ngawngaw lang daw ng mga teroristang NPA. Pasensyahan po. 

The Philippine government's corruption is KILLING COVID PATIENTS. 

It never stops to amass more. 

Napakagaling talaga ng binoto ng taong bayan! It’s dreadful to think kung ilang matinong presidente at ilang taon ang bubunuin para lang maitama ang ginagawa ng administration na to talaga. Not to mention yung budget for 2022?! Parang wala ng consideration for COVID.

Let us learn from this mistake, vote wisely, support genuine public service.
