A person under investigation for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) spent 11 hours on Friday in a tent outside a hospital in Quezon City waiting for admission before he was finally confined, only to die a few hours later.
Liwanag Serrano Jr. was brought to Lung Center of the Philippines and stayed with other PUIs in a tent for 11 hours, his daughter Rachelle Serrano-Ramos said.
“We are a third world country, I get it. We trust in God’s will but it pains us how my Dad had to be at the wrong place at the wrong time,” Rachelle told GMA News Online in a message on Monday.
In a Facebook post on Saturday, Rachelle shared the struggle of her father to receive proper care.
“I refuse for you to be remembered as a statistic. I never thought you will be a casualty of war, a battle we lost without a FIGHT,” she said.
