Benjamin Alves discusses an effective way how people can help in the fight against COVID-19.
It has been emphasized that the practices of physical distancing and quarantine are effective measures to #FlattenTheCurve or slow down the spread of the coronavirus disease.
In Benjamin's Instagram post, he draws the attention of his followers to another measure to mitigate the community transmission and infection of COVID-19. And that it is to be honest in giving a full disclosure of one's travel history and exposure when consulting a doctor or a medical practitioner.
He said, “Mga Kapuso, sa panahon ngayon kailangan po natin magkaisa upang labanan ang banta ng COVID-19.
"Hinihikayat po ng Department of Health sa lahat ng pasyente na i-disclose po ang lahat ng impormasyon sa ating healthworkers.
"Wag po nating ilihim ang mga aktibidad natin lalung-lalo na po kung may kaugnayan ito sa pagbiyahe o exposure sa mga ibang kaso ng COVID-19.
“Importante po ito para maibigay po sa inyo ang tamang alaga at makaiwas na din po sa pagkalat ng sakit.
"Ang tapat na sagot na ibibigay po ninyo ay makakapagligtas din po sa inyong buhay, sa healthworkers, sa ibang frontliners, at sa iba pang pasiyente na kailangan po ng tulong natin.
"Maraming, maraming salamat po, Kapuso. Mag-ingat po tayong lahat.”
Benjamin's public service announcement is among the Kapuso artists' efforts to spread awareness in fighting the COVID-19.
