The PGH initially committed 130 beds for COVID-19 patients.
Legaspi clarified that this did not mean that PGH would be strictly open to COVID-19 patients only.
“Admission to the referral center will initially be limited to mild PUIS who are at high risk for deterioration," he explained further. "Eventually, when testing for COVID-19 has been made readily available, only confirmed COVID-19 patients will be sent to the referral centers.”
Under this system, persons under investigation (PUI) in mild condition would only be triaged at their local health units.
