Posts: 6835Another look. 2 weeks ago I posted the first pic, a BioSurveillance Report from the Phils Genome Center (July 24). My empahsis at the time was the Delta variant. The DHO releases this each week. Here we are 2 weeks later, with the latest numbers for the variants. Here is a breakdown of what has happened in 2 weeks, percentage-wise. Guessing this is one reason they are so concerned about Delta. Somebody check my math:
Alpha cases up 18%, deaths up 5%.
Beta cases up 17%, deaths up 14%.
Delta cases up 278% (119 and 450 cases), deaths up 125% (4 and 9 deaths).
Gamma cases and deaths, no change.
P3 cases up 18%, deaths no change.

If yes, no risks at all.
If not, risk stay low, but don't be late to visit urgencies if really breathing becomes difficult, oxygen can be needed in some cases.
Whish you to recover soon.

Posts: 1056I have Covid19
Yesterday's test came back positive. Not surprising as I felt at death's door Hard to contract trace as I did not mix around much. Some of he medications friends are suggesting are positively scary: some thing that gets rid of parasitical worms in horses.

Posts: 204More about Visa Arrival
This site has a different take about changes to the Visa on Arrivals process. On this site a Filipino Visa worker says that the Visa on Arrival processing will not change. Her take is that applying for a visa from an embassy will only be required by citizens of countries who currently require a visa before arrival in the Philippines. Sorry for causing confusion, however I imagine interpretations will continue to unfold.

In the past, the LA Phils Consulate has always processed my visa applications in less than 24 hours when I send it to them. Always, regardless of what state I was living in, my passport and new visa was back in my hands within 5 days of my sending it. If I sent it (next-day air express, going and coming back to me) on Monday, it was back in my hands on Thursday or Friday. FedEx / UPS tracking showed it was at the Consulate for about 8 hours each time. The remainder of the several days was spent at sorting facilities or 'In Transit'. Also at the consulate are windows for in-person visa application. This too was fairly efficient; a friend tells me that after dropping it off at the window, the PP and visa was back in his hands in a few hours. BTW, it costs more to send it 'express' than it does to process the visa.
Having said that, its important to note that Phils government offices that are still open (some, such as city hall Makati, close some parts or all during ECQ), are operating at 50% employee capacity since the start of Covid, including the BI. They have reduced the number of clients allowed inside. They have gone to online appointment-only, so you can no longer just show up and 'fall in line'. Its possible that overseas Consulate or Embassy facilities might be required to do the same, so plan on a few extra days to get your visa processed for your upcoming trip.
