EXPLAINER: The Novel Coronavirus' Effects to the Philippines, and What We Can Do About It

It happened swiftly. Everyone was caught off-guard; even the strongest and the wealthiest nation in the planet bowed down due to the ill-fated COVID-19 pandemic. 

According to the World Health Organization, the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a new strain of coronavirus. This new virus and disease were unknown before the outbreak began in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. The disease causes respiratory illness (like the flu) with symptoms such as a cough, fever, and in more severe cases, difficulty breathing. According to health authorities, you can protect yourself by washing your hands frequently, avoiding touching your face, and avoiding close contact (1 meter or 3 feet) with people who are unwell.

As of this writing, there has been 1, 363, 365 total of reported confirmed positive cases worldwide, 292, 467 recoveries, and 76, 507 deaths. Of course, this data changes so rapidly. These confirmed cases aren't all cases. They only include people who tested positive. Testing rules and availability vary from country to country. Today, DOH reports 104 new COVID-19 cases, 14 new deaths, and 11 new recoveries.This brings the totals to 3,764 confirmed cases, 177 deaths, and 84 recoveries as of 4pm today, April 7.

As previous routines in our daily lives were greatly affected, we notice a multitude of stories from all across the globe how the weak and the strong, the rich and the poor struggled to survive. Unimaginable horrific situations from various hospitals and medical facilities stormed the news outlets and social media platforms brought about by the devastation caused by the novel corona virus. As more and more countries report daily rise of infected persons and fatalities, the world is in panic as governments look for vaccines and medicines for this disease. In fact, solidarity tests and trials are in place between medical facilities following strict protocol of the World Health Organization.

In the Philippines, the government declared the whole country in a state of national emergency as early as March this year. The crisis later turned out really futile as local transmissions emerged from a number of local towns and cities. To stop the widespread infection, and in the hope of containing the virus, the Department of Health, have urged the public to observe extreme measures such as constant hand washing, social and physical distancing, and among others. Extreme situations calls for extreme actions, they say. With this, the government formed the Inter-Agency Task Force on Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF-EID) that meets everyday to tackle this emergency situation. One of the things that were imposed is the on-going "lockdown" and placing parts of the country to enhanced community quarantine.

Business establishments were shut down, schools were closed, churches and other institutions were forced to temporarily stop serving the public. Private offices, factories, car repair shops and malls have closed. The entire country is under strict quarantine and the army and other enforcers are on the streets to monitor compliance.The homeless were forced to vacate their abode and were rescued to temporary shelters prepared by local government units for them.  In fact, some public areas were converted to temporary quarantine facilities.

With the implementation of enhanced community quarantine and among others, most Filipinos were forced unemployed. While other establishments and government offices impose work-from-home measures, many other workers and other vulnerable sectors were having hard times to cope up with the situation. The Department of Labor and Employment answered this by giving out financial assistance to affected vulnerable individuals.

Those still working in hospitals have their hands full dealing with the outbreak. They are modern-day heroes sacrificing and doing what they can to fight in the midst of insufficient personal protective equipment (PPE), uncertainties, and the like. At first, even those from private hospitals were overwhelmed with the situation. To add to the dilemma, a number of health workers have been infected, and worst, some even died from the virus. Their infection and death is attributed to patient's who lied travel histories, exposure to COVID patients, and among others. With hospitals preparing for an expected surge in cases in the weeks ahead, the race is on to get doctors and nurses the equipment they need in time. At some point in time, the lack of funds has even forced some health care professionals to go ‘begging on social media’ for personal protective equipment amid the outbreak. Fortunately, a number of individuals, celebrities, social media influencers, politicians, business establishments, and other organizations heed the call. Truly, angels emerged and stories of compassion have been flooding our newsfeeds as well--we will focus our next post about that.

The government is on top of the situation and in fact, fast tracked whatever means that can be done in light with the situation. Measures and actions of the government mentioned here are only some of the several ways they have adopted throughout the whole country. Thankfully, local government units are also actively engaged towards the matter. Truthfully, everyone is doing their best in our quest to bring back what was normal. On the other hand, other government agencies are also crowdsourcing as we they look forward to implement the "new normal."

According to the Department of Health website, there’s currently no vaccine to prevent coronavirus disease (COVID-19). 

The website further cited that you can protect yourself and help prevent spreading the virus to others if you:

• Wash your hands regularly for 20 seconds, with soap and water or alcohol-based hand rub.
• Cover your nose and mouth with a disposable tissue or flexed elbow when you cough or sneeze.
• Avoid close contact (1 meter or 3 feet) with people who are unwell.
• Stay home and self-isolate from others in the household if you feel unwell. 
• Don't touch your eyes, nose, or mouth if your hands are not clean.

While the rest of the world is busy tackling this crisis, all we can do for now is to stay at home and keep on praying for the safety of our families, for the healing of those who are sick, for the strength and courage to our health workers, for the success of our government, and for this COVID-19 pandemic to end as soon as possible.

Best Places of the Philipines to Experience Lent

by: Junrey R. Belando

For three centuries, three decades and three years, the Philippines was under the colony of Spain. Many of today's traditions prevalent in this country were influenced by the Spanish colonizers. One of which is the observance of Christianity's most sacred occasion--the Lenten Season. The Lent is a solemn religious observance of many Christian denominations in the annual commemoration of the Holy Week, marking the death, burial, and the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

It's important to remember that the  Philippines  is the  fifth largest Christian country  on earth, with about 85% of the population being adherents. It is also one of two predominantly  Roman Catholic  nations in  Asia  (the other being  East Timor ), and is the  third largest  Catholic country in the world. (Inquirer Global Nation. December 21, 2011.)

As a dominantly Christian nation, you can easily notice the influence of religion wherever you go in the Philippines. As a result, many of these traditions are widely reknowned and eventually become a tourist attraction, and this article will deal with this. In this article, we'll explore the top places to experience Lent when you're in the Philippines.

Holy Week usually occurs in early April, and for the predominantly Catholic Filipinos, it is a period when families take leave from school and work and spend time visiting churches to observe the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Many opt to leave the cities and take vacations, and depending on their temperament, will choose destinations for their party atmosphere, quiet setting, or spiritually-nourishing events.

Here are 10 spots in the Philippines to spend the upcoming Holy Week:

1. Marinduque. Marinduque is a small heart-shaped island in the Southern Tagalog, which, coincidentally, is also in the center of the Philippines. Dubbed the “Lent Capital of the Philippines“, Marinduque welcomes thousands of tourists here during the Lenten holidays to experience religion and culture at the same time.

On the first week of Lent, which usually starts on Holy Monday, Morions or the masked Roman soldiers can already be seen roaming around the streets of Marinduque, or Boac, its town capital.

Tourists are also welcomed by the Morions at the Balanacan Port in Marinduque to give an instant feel of the province’s Moriones Festival.

The Senakulo, a Lenten play that depicts the life, suffering, and death of Christ, starts staging on the evening of Holy Wednesday. The Via Crucis or the Way of the Cross starts on the early morning of Good Friday. You have the option to go along with Christ, the other penitents, and Morions or simply watch–though it is highly suggested that you go with the Way of the Cross so you can also internalize Christ’s suffering and just consider it as another form of penitence. The Via Crucis usually starts between 7:00AM and 8:00AM and ends with a “crucifixion” before lunch.

The Senakulo ends on the midnight of Easter Sunday and with the most anticipated presentation of all, since the resurrection of Christ will be staged. Early morning of Sunday, most people run to the beach as a sign of celebration for the risen Christ.

When in Marinduque during Holy Week, be sure to take some snapshots of its famed Moriones Festival. Take a pose with some Morions or, specifically, look for the Morion Longinus. He’s easy to spot–he’s blind on one eye and is the most famous Morion off all. Read the Bible or, better yet, listen and watch the Senakulo carefully to know why.

2. San Pedro, Cutud, Pampanga. The Cutud Lenten Rites is famous for the re-enactment of Christ’s crucifixion, with the actual nailing of people on a wooden cross. Tourists and foreign media flock to Cutud just to witness the 55-year-old street play, thus, turning what is supposed to be a solemn religious celebration a highly commercialized one. Just a word of caution though: this is not for the faint-hearted. If the mere sight of blood makes you queasy and nauseous, then better not go here.

However, if you are into photojournalism, then going to Cutud is an experience not to miss. The event has a VIP area for media and photographers so taking photos won’t be a problem. Just be sure that you can endure the heat of the sun.

Aside from the crucifixion, flagellants, also known locally as “magdarame”, walk barefoot around the town and whip their backs with a bundle of bamboo sticks at the end of a rope and use razor blades to cut their swollen backs so blood can come out.

3. Quiapo. Since most people head to their respective provinces during Holy Week, traveling around Metro Manila during Good Friday is always a breeze. In fact, Visita Iglesia in Manila has always been a tradition among Catholics who choose to spend Lent in Manila, and the Quiapo Church is probably one of the favorite churches among pilgrims.

During Good Friday, Black Nazarene devotees flock to Quiapo Church for the Black Nazarene procession, which usually starts as early as 5:30 AM. Various Black Nazarene replicas are also paraded along the streets of Quiapo while devotees go barefoot in imitation of Jesus on his way to Mount Calvary.

There have been various accounts of people who have touched the Black Nazarene are reported to have been cured of their diseases. Thus, like the actual Black Nazarene feast on January 9, towels and handkerchiefs are also hurleto the marshals and escorts guarding the Black Nazarene, requesting their cloths to be wiped to the statue in hope for a miracle.

Nearby churches that can also be included in your Visita Iglesia itinerary are the Malate Church, Binondo Church, Manila Cathedral, San Agustin Church, Santa Cruz Church, and San Sebastian Church.

On the other hand, the usual rowdy and busy Escolta and Delpan suddenly transform into peaceful streets during Good Friday–a perfect time for photojournalists to capture this very rare quiet moment in Manila through their lens.

4. Balaan Bukid Shrine, Guimaras. If you love outdoor activities, then trekking to Balaan Bukid Summit in Jordan, Guimaras is the best activity for you this coming Holy Week. Balaan Bukid, which means “Sacred Mountain” in the Hiligaynon dialect of Panay, is a pilgrimage site of Catholic devotees that sits on top of the mountain.

At the summit of Balaan Bukid is the Ave Maria Purisima Shrine where a chapel is marked by a huge, white cross. It is hard not to miss this large cross when you’re coming from Iloilo to Guimaras. Climbing Balaan Bukid is free of charge but be sure to bring lots of water to keep you hydrated, and put on some sunblock before climbing as the trek will take 45 minutes. On your way up, be sure to take note of the 14 Stations of the Cross.

Also, a local version of the Passion of Christ, called “Ang Pagtaltal sa Guimaras”, is performed during the Lenten Season. In 2009, a new kind of Christ’s Passion and Death on the Cross was experienced by the Guimarasnons and tourists as the stage play inspired by the Seven Last Words was transformed into a street play dubbed “Ang Pagtaltal sa Balaan Bukid.”   “Ang Pagtaltal sa Guimaras”, which is already on its 35th year, was once called as the “Golgotha of the Philippines.”

5. Kapiya Display and Pasyon Singing Contest, Santa Barbara, Iloilo
A kapiya or tableau of human characters acting or art works depicting the 14 Stations of the Cross is staged all over town during Holy Week. On Good Friday, residents roam around to witness beautifully displayed kapiya as well as to take part in singing the pasyon (passion of Christ).

6. Pilgrimage, Bani, Pangasinan. The pilgrimage in Bani is known with a 1,000-step Via Crucis that leads to the Redeemer’s Cross, a gigantic cross located on a plateau overlooking the South China Sea. The practice started back in 1975 and continues to draw thousands of pilgrims, both foreign and local.

7. Katkat Sakripisyo sa 3003 Steps, Linabo Peak, Dipolog City. Done every Good Friday, Katkat Sakripisyo sa 3003 Steps is a trekking activity done to commemorate the passion of Christ. During the trekking, Catholic devotees climb up 3003 steps as an act of their devotion. The community of Zamboanga del Norte and the neighboring municipalities are known to join the event.

8. Panaad, Camiguin Island. Panaad is a Holy Week activity in the Island of Camiguin done by walking around the island for a promise. Annualy done, Panaad is a 64-kilometer trekking activity of devotees to show how much one will endure to keep a promise. The 14 Stations of the Cross are also placed around the island as a guide for the whole walk.

9. Lenten Procession, Baliuag, Bulacan. During Holy Wednesday and Good Friday, the streets of this town are filled with grand floats depicting scenes of the passion of Christ. This Lenten season attraction of this town is also known as the “Prosisyon ng mga Santo” (Procession of the Saints).

10. Giwang-Giwang, Binangonan, Rizal. Done during Good Friday, Giwang-Giwang is a procession re-enacting the funeral of Christ. Devotees joining the procession try to touch the Holy Sepulchre. In the process, the procession sways, thus the term, “giwang-giwang.”
