CONFIRMED COVID-19 CASES No. 14 and 15 in CALASIAO

Today, September 4, 2020, we received the reports of two (2) positive COVID-19 cases. We just recently discharged the last COVID -19 cases from our Community Isolation Unit. One of the two (2) new cases is a 59 year old male from Barangay Bued, he is symptomatic and is presently confined in a hospital. He has a previous history of travel. Our other positive case is a 35 year old female from Barangay Cabilocaan and is working in the NCR. She is asymptomatic and is presently admitted at our Community Isolation Unit. Both patients will be constantly monitored. The contact tracing teams of both barangays have been activated and is now conducting their contact tracing tasks. The contact tracing is important in order for the local Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) for COVID-19 chaired by Mayor Joseph Arman Bauzon to recommend to the Regional IATF for the delineation of the critical and containment zones.

We are again making an appeal to our community to continue to practice the prescribed health safety protocols of hand washing, wearing of face masks and face shields outside your homes, the use of hand sanitizers/alcohol and to always observe social/physical distancing. Again, we also appeal for our constituents not to discriminate, harass or think ill of our COVID-19 patients and their families and instead pray for their immediate healing and fast recovery. Maraming salamat po and God bless us all.
