Excerpt from "Lessons and questions about COVID-19 By: Leonora Aquino-Gonzales 1) While there are personal lessons for all of us from COVID-19, there are also lingering questions. I respectfully ask these questions now and direct them to the authorities. (2) Why can't we have the sense of urgency to expedite urgent and specific measures? Why do we still have the feeling that it's business as Usual For example, why can't we rush the procurement of more hospital beds? Why can't we make available in the market the much-needed medicine-for example. Remdosevir and other tested. medicine so patients will not be victimized by the manipulation of unscrupulous vendors (3) Why can't we entice more health workers to join the workforce by providing better pay and an assurance of medical support in case they or their family members get sick? According to Inquirer columnist Kay Rivera "our country is the world's top source of nurse professionals but has the lowest number of nurses per capita in Southeast Asia." She further observed that the salaries of health workers are lower than the military and the polico. (4) Why is there no "stress" or trauma specialist attending to COVID-19 patients when a patient is all by himself in a hospital room gasping for air, he can get stressed and traumatized, which may harm his immune system. (5) Enough with the whys. Quick actions, please.
