Valenzuela City eyed for VCO trials for mild COVID cases
DoST held a meeting Friday with Valenzuela Mayor Rex Gatchalian to discuss areas of collaboration between the DoST and the city in the fight against COVID-19.
In a Facebook post, DoST Secretary Fortunato dela Pena said that they have identified some initial areas of collaboration like the use of the COVID-19 Disease Model called the Feasibility Analysis of Syndromic Surveillance using Spatio-Temporal Epidemiological Modeler for forecasting on the LGU level and the possible inclusion of Valenzuela as a site in the clinical trials for VCO as a therapeutic for COVID-19.
The disease model FASSSTER was developed by the Ateneo de Manila University in cooperation with the Department of Health and UP National Institutes of Health with funding from the DoST.
