Fourteen senators have signified through a resolution their call for the resignation of Department of Health (DOH) Secretary Francisco Duque III. Signatories to such resolution said its “nothing personal” and its just that they wanted someone competent to lead the government’s response to the novelcoronavirus2019 disease (COVID-19) crisis.
“We expect our public health leader to show everyone he has the necessary qualities to lead the response effectively because our own people’s lives are at stake here. Every decision matters. We cannot afford to be indecisive at this point,” Senator Joel Villanueva, one of the signatories in the resolution, said in a statement.
“It (resolution) is what it is, nothing personal we just badly need a public health expert to lead,” the senator adds.

this day remains unpredictable.”

tayo.”
Health Secretary Francisco T. Duque III
- We are at war with an invisible enemy which to this day remains
unpredictable. As such, we adapt and innovate. Despite all the challenges and
limited resources, DOH is making sure that we, as a nation, have a fighting
chance against COVID-19. This is not a fight of one man or of one agency, it is
a fight for all of us Filipinos.
We will answer these allegations in due time, but
right now, we will continue to be in the trenches with our health care workers
and frontliners. Let us work as a team, as one country fighting for the health
and safety of all. I will continue to serve the country to the best of my
abilities. Magtulungan po tayo.
