Quezon City hospital staff deny nCoV case, lockdown

PERSONNEL from the East Avenue Medical Center in Quezon City belied claims on social media that a patient was admitted for the 2019 novel coronavirus acute respiratory disease (2019-nCoV ARD) and that hospital declared a lockdown because of it.

"Madami pong natawag tungkol diyan, 'di naman po totoo sir (We have received calls asking about the news but they’re not true)," an unidentified information desk officer told The Manila Times.
