IT IS already the month of August and over a year and a half had passed since Covid-19 pandemic hit us like no other. Of course, there have been pandemics before but like anything bad the one that you are suffering now, you feel is like the baddest that has ever hit you in the guts.

Monologue in the time of COVID-19 pandemic

I HAVE a friend who's a big fan of boxer-senator Manny Pacquiao. He is rooting for him to run for president in the 2022 elections. He said: “Kung naging madali lang sa kanya na patumbahin ang kanyang mga naging katunggali sa ruweda baka ganun din ang gawin niya, lapatan ng lunas ang mga problema ng bayan.”

I WOULD have been vaccinated already with my first dose last Wednesday, May 26,  coz my seester Almalyn was able to pull her usual tricks again when she got to talk with some people over  at the Lucena city health office and got my name listed for schedule to be vaccinated on that appointed day. But it did not happen. On Tuesday night, out of the blue somebody from the barangay center of Bgy. 10 called me saying I am scheduled to be vaccinated tomorrow. I was taken aback coz I was not expecting to be vaxed anytime soon when the good Sis had told me a week before that she was finding ways to have me inoculated with a vaccine against Covid-19.

Monologue during the pandemic

It’s hard enough to dig up information related to the Covid-19 situation in any parts of the world and the independent media can only rely on the data from official sources. Media practitioners cannot just sniff around and barge into like they used to before the pandemic. Now the newsmen, like during any emergency situations, are at the mercy on their sources and like the rest of the population, are hampered by fears and worries for their health and safety.

Vaccine situation in Quezon

AS THE month of September touched ground on Wednesday Covid-19 cases in the Philippines have breached 2 million. Medical authorities attributed the Covid surge to the Delta variant which they claimed to have community transmission and has faster infection rate than other older Covid variants.
