The country\u2019s medical frontliners may be exhausted, but they aren\u2019t calling it quits in the ongoing battle against COVID-19, which is why ABS-CBN Foundation continues to show full support and love to them.<\/p>\n

Through the \u201cPantawid ng Pag-ibig\u201d campaign, 125 hospitals and 25 institutions were given PPEs (personal protective equipment) by ABS-CBN Foundation to protect the lives of the country\u2019s brave healthcare workers.<\/p>\n

Seventy-seven hospitals are located in the National Capital Region (NCR), while 48 are in the provinces, according to their latest update posted on August 5. Through donations from generous donors, ABS-CBN Foundation is able to provide N95 masks, surgical masks, goggles, hygiene kits, gloves, face shields, alcohol, and body suits, among others to the country\u2019s heroic frontliners.<\/p>\n

One of ABS-CBN Foundation\u2019s partner in this initiative is WeCare, a free-to-use community-based emergency response platform that connects individuals or groups willing to support communities requiring assistance during a crisis.<\/p>\n

To ensure COVID-19 frontliners are strong and healthy, ABS-CBN Foundation also deliver to them vitamins, medicines, electrolyte drinks, and food. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Just recently, various healthcare workers pleaded the government for a \u2018time out\u2019 as the country\u2019s hospitals became overwhelmed with the surge of COVID-19 cases. This resulted to Metro Manila and other areas in the country reverting to modified enhanced community quarantine (MECQ). \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the\u00a0latest report of the Department of Health (DOH) published on August 11, there are now 5,644 healthcare workers in the country who contracted COVID-19, while 39 of them succumbed to the disease. \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

They need\u00a0thousands\u00a0of\u00a0surgical masks\u00a0and other PPE\u00a0that healthcare wor<\/span>kers can use in their duties so they can continue to hold the line in the country\u2019s war against COVID-19.
