The Department of Health said there is no reason for the public to panic over the detection of the Omicron variant in the Philippines, but reminded the people that there should be no room for complacency in following health protocols at this point in time.
Vergeire said that all co-passengers of the two Omicron variant cases underwent quarantine upon their arrival in the Philippines. “We are just asking for all of these passengers to monitor themselves. Kung may mararamdaman po tayo, tayo ay makipag coordinate agad sa local government. But napakaliit na po ng risk ng ating mga kababayan na ito para magkaroon ng sakit na ito ,” she furthered.
“We don’t know. To be safe, all of those inside the planes should be tested and contact-traced,” he said.
