Some PGH clinics closed on Tuesday, Aug 26 due to bad weather

The Philippine General Hospital (PGH) said some of its clinics would be closed on Tuesday, Aug 26, following work and class suspensions due to expected inclement weather in Metro Manila.

The advisory said these clinics are the Outpatient Department, Cancer Institute, and Sentro Oftalmologico Jose Rizal.

PGH said those with appointments will be given a new schedule which can be viewed via the Online Consultation Request & Appointment System.

The Department of the Interior and Local Government earlier announced the suspension of classes and government work in some areas, including Metro Manila, on Tuesday due to inclement weather.

PAGASA said a low pressure area off Eastern Samar is expected to bring scattered rains and thunderstorms across large parts of the country within the next 24 hours.

Meanwhile, the Southwest Monsoon continues to affect the western section of Southern Luzon. — Mariel Celine Serquiña/RF, GMA Integrated News
