The Department of Health (DOH) has raised Code White alert on its hospitals as preparation for the anticipated flow of people into cemeteries for the All Saints' and All Souls' days on November 1 and 2, respectively.
The National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC) on Wednesday announced that "all hospital staff and personnel will be on duty in government hospitals during the UNDAS period to provide medical assistance."
From October 31 to November 3, "all DOH-retained hospitals are on standby for any eventualities or untoward incidents," the NDRRMC announcement furthered.
