CEBU CITY, Philippines – The number of documented coronavirus disease 2019 cases in Central Visayas has already breached the 3,000 mark, latest data from the government show.
Of these cases, 1,381 were classified as discharged which means these patients have already recovered from their infection. Meanwhile, 1,547 remained in home isolation or in quarantine facilities while 635 are under hospital care. However, the report said that a total of 60 or 86 percent of those who were listed as COVID-19 fatalities died from other causes or have been tagged as ‘incidental deaths.’ This means only 14 percent or 10 of the 70 coronavirus deaths were actually caused by the illness.
