“We’re seeing early signals of a surge. Over the past month, there were three instances of reversals of the decreasing growth rates of cases,” said Dr. John Wong of the IATF Technical Working Group.
The Department of Health has said that a slight increase in COVID-19 cases was observed in the National Capital Region and Luzon. Wong said the shifting from cloth masks to high-filtration efficiency masks will reduce transmission. “We have good evidence that the first booster is effective. In fact, the incremental benefit from the second dose to the first booster is very big. And the incremental benefit between the first booster and the second booster is much smaller compared to that of between second dose and the first booster,” said Dr. Edsel Salvana, an infectious disease expert with the DOH Technical Advisory Group.
