Statements from biz community on ECQ:

George Barcelon, PCCI pres. emeritus: "Basically you're just delaying the infection...Ang concern ko lang is if 'yung infections 'di bumaba, anong prescriptions ng IATF? Extend the ECQ which is very bad for the economy?" | @prinzmagtulis
Sergio Ortiz-Luis, ECOP president: "Biglaan eh, anong preparation ang magagawa mo? It’s a good thing. But wala kaming preparation kasi 'di naming akalain. What will happen if they extend ECQ beyond 1 week? Catastrophe." | @prinzmagtulis
Steven Cua, president of Phil. Amalgamated Supermarkets Association: "It’s like going to war without guns and ammunitions. But I agree with it. Suppliers are preparing right at this moment (if it gets extended) to make sure na 'di maputol ang supply." | @prinzmagtulis

Health workers group HPAAC says people die in emergency rooms when they can't be admitted immediately. Wards and rooms are full.

It urges President Duterte to issue EO to order data gathering to create a COVID-19 referral network.
Dr. Pauline Convocar of HPAAC: "Kahit na iisa lamang pasyente ang hindii natin maasikaso at mabigyan ng tamang suporta, sintomas na ito na may mali sa sistema."

She stresses need for central data body, integrated response for effective T3 (test, trace, treat).
HPAAC points out contact-tracing mess—apps used by LGUs and private establishments are not linked to a centralized data repository.

They should be compelled to share data, the group says.
