44.9% of Baguio villages hit by COVID

Donna Tubera-Panes, city health services office infectious disease cluster head, said Barangays Camp 7, Middle Quezon Hill, Bakakeng Central, Guisad Central, Irisan, New Lucban and San Vicente, which are densely populated, have the most number of cases.

Panes said more than half of the confirmed cases neither have travel history nor been exposed to COVID patients.

She said 56 percent of the patients are asymptomatic while 41 percent have mild symptoms. Only one percent manifested severe symptoms.

Panes said the increase in cases was a result of expanded testing. From only 50, she said a maximum of 800 testings are being conducted daily.
