De Guzman: Mas mababa ang deaths nangyari ngayong Oktubre kumpara noong Setyembre at Agosto. We peaked at 168 deaths per day nung Sept. Ngayon, tayo ay nag-a-average nalang ng 68 deaths per day
How is the implementation of the alert level system in areas outside NCR?
De Guzman: Mayroon pong areas na nakakakita ng improvements in their case data and utilization [rate] subalit nakakaisang linggo palang tayo
