*Pinapaalalahanan ang lahat na huwag maging kampante sa banta ng COVID-19. Bagkus, dapat natin ipagpatuloy ang tamang pagsunod sa minimum public health standards at lagging magsuot ng facemask, mag physical distancing, at maghugas ng kamay. Sa oras na makaramdam ng sintomas, AGAD NA MAG-ISOLATE at magpatest. Tandaan ang right test at the right time. Agad rin na magpabakuna upang makakuha ng dagdag na proteksyon laban sa COVID-19.*

Note:
Of the 1,019 reported cases today, 982 (96%) occurred within the recent 14 days (February 9 – February 22, 2022). The top regions with cases in the recent two weeks were NCR (197 or 20%), Region 4-A (124 or 13%) and Region 1 (85 or 9%).
*Of the 13 deaths, 6 occurred in February 2022 (46%), 5 in January 2022 (38%), 1 in October 2021 (8%), and 1 in September 2021 (8%) due to late encoding of death information to COVIDKaya. This issue is currently being coordinated with the Epidemiology and Surveillance Units to ensure information is up to date.*
260 duplicates were removed from the total case count. Of these, 240 are recoveries.
In addition, 1 case was found to have tested negative and has been removed from the total case count. This case is a recovery.
Moreover, 13 cases that were previously tagged as recoveries were reclassified as deaths after final validation.
*All labs were operational on February 20, 2022. However 5 labs were not able to submit their data to the COVID-19 Document Repository System (CDRS). Based on data in the last 14 days, the 5 labs contribute, on average, 1.5% of samples tested and 0.7% of positive individuals.*
*Please note that lower reported numbers and positivity rate today are because these are Sunday laboratory outputs, which traditionally have the lowest outputs per week.
