'No nation was prepared for COVID-19'

Duterte points to other countries that he says "opened up too early too soon" and are now "suffering."
He says no nation on Earth was really prepared for COVID.
The Philippines is under the world's longest quarantine, and the health department has been recording
thousands of cases per day now since general community quarantine was hoisted at the start of June to
restart the country's economy.
"All I ask is that you continue to put your faith in the government. Let us do the most that we ca to ensure
that every Filipino is taken care of. We shall fight this pandemic with the same fervor as our fight against
illegal drugs and criminality," he says.
