doesn't even look like a hospital this is like a temporary setup there are now field hospitals temporary hospitals in minot because dr. oh ok so he seems to be seeing surges and he seemed strands of u.c.b. can't beat them all in so we just have to meet whatever it is that we have so we have to dance increase our capacity by expanding space. adding more beds even if this will be only in beds so even in wheelchairs so that the be able to identity speeches outside our harmony regency departments i mean i'm really curious because we've all been in this global pandemic for over a year now but when when we use the phrase all the time so that me some think his defaced different m. and a you seeing something to think in terms of your family your friends over relatives

back. as i said earlier in the be more lawyer i've been working with them for national press wire for years but i am still very much on the looking for a lawyer and i have my family and my friends also. and for the last . 6. of my have passed away. because of. and this is who really very best not even. the members of friends. so this is their security concern because again this is about people who cannot or help there. but it's really now it's about people cannot access care. because there is not enough to go on. a mass i want to bring you into the conversation but 1st i would like to play a little clip this is raise at the cat she's

a hospital director and we just got this comment from her a little bit earlier so we can understand what is going on in hospitals particularly in manila have a listen have a look at past every hospital there and she are specially the government hospitals they are knowledge traveling we know they're an increase in the number of cases just as we know that increase in the number of health workers being battered beav. specially in the past. since march. who is running the cars $819.00. i would say the fight for coverage 19 in the philippines who is in charge of that who is doing that practically down on the ground. well the task forces should be headed by the secretary this is who want to charge and he's the one that i've been in touch with on a regular basis basically to help in procuring of the vaccines coming from the

united states i totally understand the situation with the libyans i know that it's really very critical and our health care system as it is is really and that's the main critical stage right now that to me i can really see that all do see the only solution or the light at the end of the tunnel but we've always been hearing that the vaccines and this is exactly what we're trying to do as far as we're concerned here in washington d.c. talking to the pharmaceutical companies we've been in touch with them for more than a year now well all bushed the year actually and it's unfortunate that the supplies for for the backseats especially coming from here is been very very tight and it's only recently the president by them approved. vaccines to be made available for the world especially and specifically the ice are to be exported from the united states so this is really the work that they're doing here as far as the covert thing

response is concerned i would has wants to speak to you ambassador and over and also dr so i'm going to put this each of comment to you this is from not to want to for us thank you for being part of the show doc for us does for us as my main concern is that for how long are we going to live like this is there any light at the end of the tunnel why is it that w h o responding appropriately let me start with you dr and then go to the ambassador for a response dr light at the end of the tunnel what are you seeing are you seeing any light. i have to agree with them bassett or that indeed the vaccines as a whole and the light at the end of the tunnel but we have to do something right now since we have a problem right now we have. them urgency the arguments in. it may be a green make sure of the current situation of the eans and that vaccine serves as a hope for all of us in the care workers in the general public that though it me

less hours from the situation but currently the demand d.d. and crisis of the people he is that must what must be done right now so all of those congestion on the loose and increasingly so they are really asking for help on when and where to seek help for access for the hospitals and go ahead jump in very quickly because indeed they agree with them there and go. back seams are very important but i think it's not it's only just one part of addressing this crisis it's what's happening in the predicting snow action explosives the prelude the arbor health care system and how make that our health care system has been for many many years and our sense always is that it has never been the framework by because of the government and even with previous

administrations it has never been. the healthcare system has never been seen from one lens as a human right as a right to health so as you see facilities you see how their workers who are underpaid and who would rather go to seek a better life to get better so that seems as just one point but again emily let let let me over also let let me let me bring this to to you because this is really important this is something that a conversation is a was happening on the chiefs i want to bounce it off if he so sleeping panda says i'm concerned about the lack of adequate action by the government how filipino nurses a flocking to other developed countries because i'm not getting adequately compensated in the philippines does that count as a human right. there when you please can you explain so. well you are pretty you know some of them are actually many of them are my friends they're

watching the whole friends who are in the united. as nurses so i ask them to watch this show and many of them actually me or go through the united states are here in london because they don't get. adequate they don't get adequately paid for their services or their skills in the senate beans so in order to have a cohort of both in order to be able to they were in the assessments and that they had to go somewhere else and that was different that a lot of human rights rolled into one if there's not only me an impact on the health care system in the philippines but it also goes to the human rights of the people who are not paid well so that they have to go to other countries in order to. i must say i have seen reports of the military you talk about the tough force because you toss force in the philippines the military being accused of over

stepping back power of a stepping what they should be doing jewing a global pandemic how do you see those stories do you feel that there's any. credibility to those stories in those complaints about the military. well i'm not quite sure about what are they doing but i don't know that the the government is at least initially when they put on that lock downs they needed to have obviously the persons in authority to be able to implement that and the military was fast to be one of those on the front lines to be able to implement the law problems i think for a while it was successful but in the end obviously the economy is issue this is starting to show signs of becoming again critical a critical situation especially for the for the for those who work every day and they they. are that day wager so soon so to speak just to just

to. mention some of the things that they haven't said i agree that yes the health care situation that have been quite critical but of course no one can ever for sure and then make up this play that will never happen during our time in this century and so the health care is now obvious to see suffering from that. i remember of my brother who was the health secretary chairing the climate of former president joseph estrada was one of those that pushed for universal care. is one of the cornerstones of that that ministration and i think it's has been recently passed and at the same time he was also one of those that pushed for generic medicine to be sold in the for the people you know medicines in the philippines or one of the most expensive ever and for a while the major pharmaceutical companies that we are now having to deal with right now especially coming from the united states have a very strong i would say to their way they had that quite

a lot of power in the philippines that they could not get this through but again that was biased recent the or at least not too long ago for generic medicines to be available and to make it much cheaper for the majority of our people. it's not i want to play this clip and this is this is a tragic story just one of many tragic stories coming out of manila of the last few weeks this is from anglo pereira who lost one if its parents to cover it 19 he was searching for a hospital bed and he couldn't find one have a listen me and my family we've moved on or are trying to move on so we don't really entertain these thoughts anymore but you know maybe if we had a clear clear plan of action maybe we if we knew that hospitals were a bust. you know we could have just relied on ourselves more evidence and all

that time 5 hours you know looking for a hospital to no avail really. daughter the way that i say is i if i if we don't eat out hostiles web os to say what was the point of spending 5 hours ferrying at parent around manila what's the situation like that how do we address that because vaccines are not the enemy to the solution for them. if they may just quickly. just say something since the universal health care was mentioned they sure didn't invest in during that indeed universal health care is very much eating meat a great now but i believe that there can be being literally universal health care without emergency care so all of these things just. where exposed are highlighted so i agree that we were not prepared nobody was prepared for corby it just exposed so maybe not in the disease that the health care system we've never seen but this that much decades so. in recent years an integral part of universal health care

and what was just money vested by one of those one of the. the one who lost the barrett is that in an ideal state the it should not be to the patients and it is it should be easy for hospitals to beat them in so the system should have looked for at least 3 of them or do we need to do is just ala numbering in the 80 as it being and as easy as just a 3 digit number can get advice or it will create the it's not here in the loop it's not we don't have a system yet we're getting there but there's just so many numbers to remember it's and. they're all in. there and we look into the sneeze of the metro and even in their own private cars because we don't have emergency medical services as competent. emergency medical services that so there's a long long way to go for the philippines so even before that either who say the

elite shift there should be already be a blend where the nearest office and facility or any of the look in that. so. there isn't really hardly. everything going to have to. build on her police car so yes. implementation of universal health care and also true that the generic medicines act well said it was a step or steps forward. including the health care system in the beams but those are not the. car that emergency care is a component. of universal health care also in the philippines right now including people i know including family members of mine. and this would still mean see the your financial hardship so this cannot be denied and this we cannot

this is something that i'm still seeing and there are no. i remember what you said right at the beginning of our conversation which is the solution is going to be vaccines and it's not going to be a meeting because i'm not sure where the bed to going to going to come from a doctor comes the cost showed us just from a shift early on today how people were just so sleep back together in makeshift temporary hospitals so i'm just looking at i don't want to share with our audience a picture of president deter a getting a vaccine which i believe was over a week ago i am wondering it was yesterday excuse me was even sooner than i thought even more recent than i feel i'm wondering i'm bastow what impact does that have seen the president getting a vaccine what's that value. well i suppose most leaders all over the world that's one of the things that they do is to show that

vaccines are supposed to be safe and i would like to assure them that that is what the president of the director was trying to show you know here in the united states we all know the success of their vaccine rollout obviously because of the resources that they have we are now seeing the numbers are going to go down dramatically and i understand from many states are good beginning to open their economy because of the vaccine so i'm one of those that we truly believe that this is the only way out of this now it's very unfortunate that many countries all over the world including the philippines have made little access to these supplies because all of the sea countries the rich countries are the ones that are getting it and you mentioned something about the w.h.o. we've been working with them through the kovacs facility that they set up and even then we still can't get him out of the supplies that we really need it it's coming in in trickles likely instance of plays or that we have been working on for more than 7 months now even before they were given the you 8 it's only now that we

were able to finish off the and them that the agreement that they required us to do so all of this we're all under the gun and do you think i'm right i know what i'm going to meet and you just say you have a lot to think that you think the problem is because the philippines has a reputation full of corruption and lack of transparency so do you think that is part of the problem about now when you are in a crisis where he do need international help it might be a little bit on the slow side because of that reputation do you think those 2 things are connected. not not well i'm not trying to i don't think that that's the case because in our case for instance the w.h.o. i'm sorry the world bank and the a.b.b. are those that are ready to in fact they have a standby of credit for not only for the philippines were poor many countries in asia including indonesia and they would keep and they are the ones that directly pay the pharmaceutical companies i they have representatives here in washington

d.c. with a couple of meetings with them they said we have the money for you but there are no vaccine supplies so it's really that that is really the problem and we're not the only ones that are suffering and that's what it will be up to depend on to patients coming from other countries like china and also from. from what i understand israel is coming up and they're ready to help us another cause smaller country said have offered to help the philippines. i don't want to put one more thought into our conversation this won't cause a christan something that is a health and science reporter who is looking at now when if we go from here in the philippines how do you make sure fewer people die from covered 19 this is what you told us so in the philippines using 1000000 people he made he says the medical society he's an expert say in there aren't demanded basic epidemic response well she's saying expanded best thing answer isolation about meat in addition are the

gaps in health infrastructure another challenge is the whole government units are not use online in response some of the national bomb making surviving there are bright spots in some cities much meager existence is as simple as having a scene on the chasing after an essential last year i'm dashed martin. which you still own how either to banking or science at school because sponsors are weak for everyone to get not. bought with inefficient fall out and limited maxim's night that will likely be. it's a thought to come because i'm also seeing questions on nature where people are asking about vaccine has to say in the philippines so vaccinations are the onset to how do you reduce the number of deaths and adults vaccine has a sensing what do you to as the medical profession to help people like. me make them understand that you need the vaccine is one way out of this and to me

unfortunately. the axioms are not they're not coming in fast enough to for all of these spot for most of our population to be vaccinated so with regards the vaccine has it in see i think the president having been vaccinated late is a big. it's a it's a good share of you know that the public may trust the backseat and that. most of the. health care workers are. are already back to me and they can speak for themselves as well and trust for that exceeds but indeed it is really part of the problem. that's in the shine that exene has it is that we need to understand that we need to meet the public understand. i'm just looking here on my laptop to see how vaccinations are doing in southeast asia coverage 19 vaccination race in asia at the top singapore this is this is doses

administered per $100.00 of the population in selected asian countries singapore there is right at the top china a little bit behind them and we have to go all the way down here to the philippines and then thailand is even lower so this is going to be an ongoing problem it's an ongoing challenge for people in the philippines dealing with the search right now docked to conver car thank you so much ambassador appreciate your family and so much to talk about really thank you very much for helping us shine a light on this surge of coverage 19 cases that the casualties there and really what you need which are vaccinations a lot of them thank you so much for joining us on the stream and thank you you too for being part of our conversation always appreciate it i will see you next time take care.
