This is one of those things that people hoped the President would say but didn't say during the SONA – a recognition of our brave health workers and a comprehensive plan on how to protect and equip them, in order to give us all a better chance at winning against this virus. https://t.co/UIEHC8hqNW

Ganito kabulag at kabingi ang mga panatikong DDS. The vice-president literally gave point-by-point solutions to COVID-19 problems, and this troll's comment? Hanap solusyon kesa paninira raw. Partida, may transcript pang napakadaling intindihin sa ilalim ng video. Mga bobo. pic.twitter.com/ZS6WSqA1CD

The fact that VP Leni Robredo has to lay out an alternative roadmap for COVID-19 response is telling of Duterte’s lack of urgency and obvious mishandling of the health crisis.

Noong lunes andaming binigkas noong mama, wala namang sinabi. Mabuti pa yung narinig ko ngayon mula sa pangalawang pangulo, malaman at malinaw.

VP Leni is so compassionate, thorough, honest, and intelligent. It's not hard to imagine how better we could be not only w/ her heading government (the dream), but also w/ the kind of people she is sure to attract as leaders, allies, collaborators, and workers in public service.
