Senator Nancy Binay has a simple message to the Presidential
Communications Operations Office (PCOO) amidst the big threat of the
coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and that is to “get their priorities straight.”
“I hope PCOO gets its priorities straight. Yung isang oras na video
documentary on drug war eh baka pwede rin gumawa ng kahit 2-minuter na
infomercials in different dialects. It makes public health officials’ jobs
harder kapag may mga taong na ‘di naman bihasa sa public health ang nagsasalita
para sa DOH, and making it difficult for people to know who to trust,” Binay
said in a statement on Sunday.
“Kailangan mag-step up ang ibang agencies at PCOO
in elevating the ante in risk communication. Wag na muna nilang ubusin ang oras
nila sa kung anong roadshow sa Europe dahil dapat Pilipinas muna ang bigyan
natin ng focus para labanan ang paglaganap ng Covid-19,” she added.
