The city government of Davao is developing a centralized communication system to give Dabawenyos better access for all Covid-19 related concerns.
Dr. Ashley Lopez, acting head of the City Health Office (CHO), said the system will help Dabawenyos find the right hotline numbers to call in case of problems and complaints.
“We are developing a centralized hotline. Hinaut unta na ma-plastar na kabalo ko nga isa sa mga complaints is sa kadaghan sa mga hotlines nalibog na kung unsay tawagan ug kasagaran pa katong mga hotlines wala’y mutubag. So karon we are trying to clear it up and we are trying to do something to improve the system,” Lopez said.
He said the city has hired a private counterpart to help in developing the system.
“So didto na mag-channel down ang atong mga linya kung asa ta necessary i-access. We are looking forward para dili nata malipong ug pangita ug unsa na hotline ang tawagan,” he said.
Lopez said the city is eyeing to implement the system this month.
“Kung ma-plastar na ning centralized communication system then that would give us better and accurate access sa atong mga dapat tawagan,” he said.
Presently, the city has provided 24/7 Covid-19 Hotlines via Globe, Smart, PLDT, and email for Covid-19 related concerns. The city also opened swabbing and vaccination hotlines.
