Impact of COVID-19 in Metro Manila:
This time facing the problem of COVID-19 crisis.Manila has the major percentage of COVID-19 patients and death ratio. As per updated data the Philippine capital of Manila was on its way to marking the world's longest coronavirus lockdown when on Friday it reached 76 days under strict quarantine, a period only matched so far by the Chinese pandemic epicenter of Wuhan, even though the measures appear to have largely failed in flattening the curve of infections.Cut off by land, sea and air since Mar. 15, the city has continued to be the biggest COVID-19 hotspot in the Philippines, accounting for 64 percent of the over 15,500 cases in the country and 73 percent of more than 900 deaths.
The major attraction and source of income- tourism is affected badly. Because economy is shutdown so entry of tourist is banned there so hospitality industry, retail businesses, aviation industry is affected badly and thousands of people have lost their jobs. Because of major affect area of Philippines the health expenses is reached at highest level and other side the income of government and local bodies reduced drastically so, situation became more panic.There are number of political disputes are arising within city and country.
Overseas Students and other citizens of other's country are also Stuck their and institutions are not taking new admission. So, its affect badly to the students and institutions also.
Conclusion:
After discussion about all the economical, political, social impacts we can say that situation in Manila is panic and government should take a strong action to safeguard of the capital region and work for nation without any disputes. If government open the city then i will recommend that you should avoid to visit their until situation do not get normal.
