00:00Before the success, the Philippine General Hospital will first limit the reception of patients in their emergency room.
00:11The spokesperson of PGH, Dr. Jonas Del Rosario, said that their ER is full and has reached a critical overcapacity.
00:19They are also lacking oxygen ports due to the large number of patients.
00:24And because of that, they are still conducting a cold triage.
00:27This means that they will only receive acute life-threatening emergencies.
00:33The health department has already talked to PGH about moving some of their patients to DOH hospitals.
00:39There is no other reason why the situation is like this, and it is expected that the number will decrease in the next few days.
00:49We're hoping that within a week, the problem will be fixed.
00:54And once our problem is solved, then we will announce again to the public that the overcapacity is over.
