Answer:
CEBU CITY, Philippines – The Mactan Cebu International Airport’s domestic terminal will add thermal screening to domestic flights after 10 cases of the novel coronavirus were confirmed in Metro Manila as sai don March , 2020.
Bureau of Quarantine Central Visayas chief Dr. Terrence Anthony Bernejo said in a press conference on Monday, March 9, that currently, only passengers coming out of the domestic airport are being scanned for high fever.
As of Monday, Department of Health Region 7 head Dr. Jaime Bernadas said that there are no more patients under investigation or persons under monitoring in Central Visayas.
Cebu Governor Gwendolyn Garcia, who held an emergency meeting on the novel coronavirus outbreak on Monday afternoon, expressed concern that none of the confirmed cases came from countries that were included in the Philippines’ travel ban.
After the travel ban on mainland China and special administrative regions was announced in late January, Cebu has been requiring returning Filipinos from these areas to go under quarantine.
Among the confirmed cases, one was Taiwanese, another a Filipino with travel history to Japan, and an American male who came from South Korea.
Garcia is meeting with stakeholders to come up with more stringent containment strategies and response plans after President Rodrigo Duterte declared a state of public health emergency earlier on Monday.
The first confirmed COVID-19 case traveled through Central Visayas, including Cebu and Dumaguete, before going to Manila. The 26 South Koreans from virus-hit Daegu City, South Korea, were also quarantined in Cebu.
According to recent data, the tourism-reliant region has taken a hit due to the novel coronavirus travel bans. The Department of Tourism said hotel occupancies in Cebu and Bohol have dropped 20% and 35%, respectively.
May the World be saved from this deadly virus and may humans treat the earth kindly to let it live for a longer time.
