We Support Our FrontLiners

Our love and support to our courageous frontliners facing the battle against #COVID19. Lets protect our Frontliners in the government and medical community; and do our part in order to help them. #StayAtHomeForUs

To date, Hotel Sogo already donated P60 million worth of room accommodations for health workers during the ECQ. The donation of 800+ rooms for the use of front liners is in cooperation with 11 Hospital Directors and the Mayors of Alabang, Caloocan, Makati, Manila, Molino, Naga, Pasay, and Quezon City.

We are one with the country in fighting the battle against Covid19.

Weekend 15: Holy Week

Black Friday for 2020.

This year is a bit different from the last three years of Holy Week celebration for the family. It's been 24 days since the city was put into Enhance Community Quarantine. As much as we wanted to travel around the province, but we can't. The planned trip to EL NIDO was cancelled and my trip to Manila for this month was already cancelled. :(

Nothing but movie watching, eating, more playing for the kids. As for me, it's just a regular Holy Days thing just like when I was a bit younger. It gets boring as I thought it was a few days back. Got nothing much to do so I decided to cook Cheesy Tuna Carbonara for lunch.

Right now, I am trying to stay sane for I still have until Sunday staying at home before getting back to work. Kids are sometimes a handful for me. I'd rather want to stay at the office than be home nagging the whole day through.. hahahha 

Life after COVID-19: Stories of Survival

As of April 7, the Department of Health reported 414 new cases of the novel coronavirus  disease in the country, raising the total number to 3,660. The Philippines now has 163 fatalities, and 73 recoveries. But while the number of deaths outnumber recoveries, most people who contract the virus go on to get better. That’s because 80% of people who contract the coronavirus will only experience relatively mild symptoms, or even no symptoms at all.

 
While most will recover from contracting COVID-19, the peculiar nature of recovery is it requires isolation. And patients, in addition to being sick, will oftentimes also experience great anxiety and afraid. According to the members of Public Health Communications Advisory Network (PHCAN), COVID-positive patients should be shown kindness and compassion, and not discrimination and fear.
 
As a follow up to their first FB Live session last April 4, PHCAN will be holding another Live session this Saturday, April 11 at 2PM, with Dr. Iris Isip-Tan together with COVID-19 survivors to discuss recovery, coping, and moving forward during this very challenging time. Follow the official PH CAN Facebook page for more updates and tune in to hear the stories of recovered COVID-19 patients.
