The arrival of a contingent of 50 medical frontliners from the Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center in Cebu City and the Department of Health in Central Visayas will ease the burden of their colleagues in Metro Manila who are struggling with the surge in Covid-19 cases.

Sen. Christopher Lawrence “Bong” Go on Friday thanked the frontliners from the Visayas for volunteering to be temporarily reassigned to the National Capital Region (NCR).
