THE Davao City Covid-19 Task Force noted a “jumpoff” increase in the city’s Covid-19 cases.

Covid-19 Task Force spokesperson Dr. Michelle Schlosser said in a radio interview on Friday, October 14 that the city recorded 117 fresh cases on that day. Schlosser said this is a 22 percent daily positivity rate.

“Taas kini compared katong(This is higher compared to) the usual daily positivity rate na (which is from) 10 to 12 percent. Nag-jumpoff ta (So there has been a jumpoff on the rate),” Schlosser said in an interview on 87.5 FM Davao City Disaster Radio. This as the city has relaxed some of its Covid-19 restrictions after having a large coverage of vaccinated individuals.

Schlosser said that the majority of the cases are classified as mild and asymptomatic. Although she said some cases are in critical and severe condition.

She also said the recorded death rate remains at “two-digit.” The health official, however, was not able to specify the exact figure.

The spokesperson said most of these deaths are those unvaccinated or those who did not get their booster shots.

“This is a strong reminder that we need to get vaccinated,” Schlosser said.

Meanwhile, she said the city continues to strengthen its vaccination efforts.

The Davao City government recently launched the weekend vaccination at the People’s Park, in partnership with the Philippine Red Cross.

The official said this would be open until December this year.

“Padayon nato nang (We continue with our) weekend vaccination so that wala na gyud rason ang mga tao na dili sila kapabakuna because naa silay trabaho (there is no reason for the public not to get vaccinated because of their work),” she said. RGL

SunStar Davao

SunStar Davao is Davao City's most sought after community content provider in both print and online. It is part of the SunStar news network in the Philippines. Sun.Star Davao started as a bi-weekly newspaper Peryodiko Dabaw in December 1985 by Elpidio G. Damaso as the so-called alternative press during the end days of the Marcos dictatorship. It started publishing five times a week the following year and was relaunched as Ang Peryodiko Dabaw on September 7, 1987, marking the entry of new investors and its use of desktop publishing, while its Davao City competitors were still using letterpress.
