San Juan City Mayor Francis Zamora said on Friday that confirmed coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases in the city had risen to 69.
In a Super Radyo dzBB interview, Zamora also said that of those cases, 59 were in stable condition while the ten others had unfortunately died.
The San Juan City Mayor added that some of the 59 cases were either being looked after in different hospitals across Metro Manila, or were home quarantined because most hospitals were full.


He also revealed that most of the confirmed COVID-19 patients in San Juan were between 50 to 80-years-old.
"Depende rin talaga 'yan sa katawan ng pasyente. They are now all being treated, but it really depends talaga 'yung katawan ng tao. Nakikita kasi natin base sa datos natin, karamihan sa tinatamaan ng COVID-19 ay between 50 to 80-years-old," Zamora said.
The San Juan government had turned the city’s science high school into an overflow quarantine facility for persons under investigation (PUI) of COVID-19.


The facility was being managed by the San Juan Medical Center and by the city health office.
Meanwhile, Zamora emphasized that the local government of San Juan was ready to come to the assistance of residents.
"Sa ngayon, nakahanda tayo hanggang isang buwan. Ngunit kung kukulangin ito, we are prepared naman to allocate even more [resources]," Zamora said. — Anna Felicia Bajo/DVM, GMA News

Ressa was never a war correspondent; she just watched CNN’s video tapes

In a recent “60 Minutes” program of the American TV network CBS, she said: “The situation in Manila is far worse than any war zone that I’ve been in. In a war zone you know exactly where the threats are coming from. I plan my way in and we plan our way out and you’re there for a limited period of time. We’ve been living through three years of this kind of hell.” For somebody who pontificates in detail how to act in a war zone, Ressa was never a war correspondent To bolster her credibility, the “60 Minutes” interviewer, Bill Whitaker, even exaggerated Ressa’s background as a “war correspondent.” In Whitaker’s very first statement in his in troduction to his interview, he says, “For more than 30 years, Filipino journalist Maria Ressa has risked her life in w

Duterte suggests revolutionary government ‘to correct everything’

President Rodrigo Roa Duterte (KING RODRIGUEZ/PRESIDENTIAL PHOTO/ MANILA BULLETIN) The President said on Tuesday he prefers the installation of a revolutionary government rather than to declare martial law or support a military-led coup if he cannot complete his six-year term. “You know, I said if I do not make it, huwag ninyong bitawan ito (Do not drop this). I’m not saying you initiate something like coup d’état. Huwag, kasi hindi na ‘yan tanggap ng Pilipino, eh (Don’t do that because Filipinos don’t accept that anymore),” he said at the oath-taking ceremony of newly promoted fire, jail, and coast guard officials in Malacañang. “If you want an outright…huwag martial law (not martial law). Mag-revolutionary government ka na lang. Diretso na. (It’s better to install a revolutionary government. It’s direct.) Tapos (then) you start to correct everything,” he added. The President made the remarks after discussing anew his resolve to run after those behind the controver

Photo from Business Insider By 2050, the world is likely to have changed drastically from what we know now, and the planet's economic and financial landscape will be no exception. A report from professional services giant PwC looks at which economies around the world will be the biggest and most powerful in 33 years time. The report, titled "The long view: how will the global economic order change by 2050?"  ranked 32 countries by their projected global gross domestic product by purchasing power parity. PPP is used by macroeconomists to determine the economic productivity and standards of living among countries across a certain time period. With the exception of the USA, many of the world's current powerhouse economies like Japan and Germany will have slipped down global rankings, replaced by countries such as India and Indonesia, which are currently emerging markets.
