00:00 As the new variants of COVID-19 are being released,

00:03 it is possible that the visa of the vaccines received by the Filipinos during the pandemic has already expired

00:08 according to an infectious disease expert.

00:10 However, there is no evidence of the DOH to stop it.

00:14 Van Myrina witnessed it.

00:16 At the moment, the Ministry of Health of Singapore,

00:22 from 38,700,

00:24 has increased the number of COVID-19 cases from 25,900 on May 5 to May 11.

00:29 The number of people in hospital has also increased every day,

00:32 but the number of people in ICU is still low.

00:34 According to the Ministry of Health of Singapore,

00:36 most of the cases are Kp1 and Kp2 variants,

00:40 which is considered by the World Health Organization

00:42 as variant under monitoring, the Kp2 variant,

00:45 which is considered by some researchers as the "flirt variant"

00:48 due to changes in its spike protein

00:51 or the part of the virus that is anchored in human cells.

00:54 However, there is no evidence that it is more transmissible

00:56 or more easily infected or that the so-called variants are more prone to COVID.

01:01 The DOH also said that there is no evidence to implement travel restrictions.

01:06 Now, according to an infectious disease expert,

01:09 it is possible that the visa of COVID-19 vaccines received during the pandemic has already been reduced.

01:13 Because of the mutations,

01:15 these new variants are not protected

01:19 compared to the first vaccines that we received.

01:22 In fact, there are reformulated vaccines, updated COVID vaccines,

01:27 but they are not available here in the Philippines.

01:30 According to Dr. Rod G. Solante,

01:31 new variants are considered low-risk,

01:34 but we should still be careful,

01:35 especially the vulnerable,

01:37 such as the elderly and immunocompromised.

01:39 The presentation of this, Audrey,

01:42 is the upper respiratory tract manifestations.

01:44 What is this?

01:45 A little cough, a little pain in the throat,

01:49 a little cold, and sometimes it is difficult to cough

01:53 because sometimes the body is sick and heavy.

01:58 But lately, you have not experienced any difficulty in breathing

02:04 and you need to be taken to the hospital because you are already suffocating from breathing,

02:08 like the Delta variant.

02:10 Aside from COVID, other respiratory illnesses such as pneumonia and influenza have also been detected.

02:16 For GMA Integrated News, Ivan Mayrena, your "Saksi."

02:21 Kapuso, let's all be "Saksi."
