Coronavirus: Here's how they are coping in uncertain times

As the COVID-19 continues to spread, the public has been taking to social media to express concern over the disease and precautions they're taking to protect themselves.

Extreme times call for extreme measures. We thank our leaders and frontliners for saving the community. 

VRS asked some of our friends how they are coping/dealing with the situation.

Maria Fe Evasco:  Following authorities
"I deal with the covid situation by following what our local government has strictly enforced and of course, pray, pray and pray."

Fiel Angeli Gabin: Watching Netflix
"My coping mechanisms? Listening to music, watching “Modern Family” on Netflix while folding clothes, and praying the rosary with the Jerome, Cielo, REnji, and Mama Wincie. We are now on our 7th day of novena for protection against COVID-19."

Andrew Baker: Being obedient
"In our country, medical experts and politicians ordered us to stay at home for our safety and to follow the precautionary measures to be always clean and healthy hence, the quarantine. Our duty as citizens of this country and an individual of the world is to simply follow the directions given by us, hope for the best, and pray. Even at home, we can do something, like spreading documented and legit  information about the current situation online.The doctors, nurses, peace officers, humanitarian aiders and other medical experts did their part as citizens with roles just to eliminate this virus. Likewise, we can be our own defintion of hero by simply being an obedient, positive and disciplined citizens in this country, in the world."

Dennissa Lorelle Owen: Keeping family updated
"I believe that it's time for us to be one and to keep our faith to God as He is the answer of everything. As a citizen, I am trying my very best to follow the rules of the government because I know my simple obedience will make a difference if practiced with love and willingness. I also encourage my mutuals to be responsible in everything that they click because there are many false news circulating in the media which causes panic and horror to almost the majority.
I have used this time to cope up with the stress I had and to connect to my family. I am catching up with the household chores in order to help my parents. I am taking the rest that I think I deserve too. I know that this pandemic is causing everyone to panic and it can be upsetting but let us not forget that we are in this together and God is more powerful."

Engr. Aprilmel Lupot: Staying can be fun
"Unfortunately, we had to shut down our construction site but the Project Management Team had been working from home for the past 11 days. It’s been very challenging to fight the boredom of being isolated from everyone, especially from my family. But thanks to technology, there’s always a way to communicate to everyone. Like any normal day, I do grocery when needed, do laundry and cook for myself. On workdays, I just sit with my laptop and keep the news on the background. I try to move around as much as I can. Otherwise, I find myself doing funny things I never thought I would do—like talking to ants, separating the contents of a Dingdong Mixed Nuts and counting all 54 holes in one Skyflakes cracker!Kidding aside, I have been very obedient by STAYING HOME. It's the least I can do to help flatten the curve."

Jerome Magallen, Ph.D.: Family bonding
"Our ways of coping the situation primarily includes  the following: Always take time to pray that God will help us overcome the crisis; we will pay attention on the preventive measures  and focus on the things that we can control to avoid the virus; physical and mental well-being like making sure to get enough sleep, eat healthy foods and supplements to boost the immune system. As much as possible, we avoid news/articles in the social media that increase our stress and anxiety; pre -occupied ourselves  cooperating with household chores like gardening and cleaning for us to be more productive even in the quarantine period; and make use of the time for family bonding."

Maria Vanessa Cadorna-Aumentado: Helping others
"While on home quarantine, I've been observing the proper handwashing and teach the kids and other members of our household to do the same, use of 70% alcohol, taking of Vitamin C and wearing of mask if necessary have been practiced. Now, since a lot of frontliners are risking their lives doing their job, in our own little way we also prepared and provided them with alcohol, mask, Vitamin C and other food supplies. This has been one of the most difficult times, we can only hope for the best and pray that this too shall pass anytime soon.  Salute to all our frontliners!  May everyone be safe and healthy for the rest of the coming days."

Police Corporal Aldrin "PNP Beatbox King"  Palaca: Washing my hands often
"Being one of the frontliners, we are vulnerable to infection not only of Covid-19 but other viruses that we might get during our deployment on field manning checkpoint operations. Before going back to our home, I sanitize my uniform specially my shoes  to ensure the non-spreading of Covid-19 including other viruses that our uniform may have picked up. I am washing my hands often."

Leah Tirol-Magno: Trusting G-d
" I face this situation with a trusting heart that all this is part of a God's greater plan. While staying home most of the time, I am spending it more in baking for others."

Dr. April Lumuthang-Froilan: Safety protocols
"Being a doctor, I have no choice but to go out and see patients despite the enhanced community quarantine protocols. I just follow proper hygiene and safety protocols.Whenever I'm home, I keep myself busy doing household chores,doing my favorite pastime, and last but not the least, I pray. It's the greatest weapon to end this dreaded disease."

Ate Vi Yorong: Social distancing
"At the office I make sure that social distancing is strictly followed as well as the "no face mask no entry policy." At home I strictly impose home quarantine to my nieces staying with me especially that we are taking care of my 81-year-old father who had a stroke in 2018. I beg for consideration on the "no back ride policy" because I work together with my niece who drives her motorcycle. Sadly, because of the "no back ride policy" we just commute. I just thank the multicab drivers that despite the implementation of the social distancing, they are there for the public."

Atty. Dave Maulas: Self-introspection
"The last time I was in a confined environment was when I was on my 6-month review for the bar exam. It took a toll on my psyche, brought about by the stress expected during the grueling review. It took a toll on my finances, as I was jobless during such time. This COVID-19 situation overwhelms in comparison, especially under the present circumstance where I have people who rely from me for support. The confinement, not voluntary; income-generating activities, restricted; dealing with unseen enemy, way more stressful. But I'm dealing this situation with a similar mindset, that is to  emerge as a better version of myself after all of this. Perhaps a better lawyer given the time to read more, perhaps a better family-man given the time to be with the family more, perhaps a more-skilled individual (dancer, singer, gardener) given the spare time to learn new skills, or simply perhaps a better person. Like on a cocoon, emerging thereafter as butterfly."

Elvie Bongosia: Sleeping galore
"Sleeping galore, reading inspirational books and movie marathon!"

 ***

This inspirational "letter" from reader Anne Mustasa (address not given) she culled from the internet.

Dear PANDEMIC

You’re back. But this time it’s different.

You came in 1918 as the Spanish Flu, infected one-third of us and killed over 50 million of us. Then you vanished as fast as you came.

You returned in 1957 as the Asian Flu and killed 2 million of us. Then you were gone.

You appeared again in 2009 as H1N1 - the Swine Flu. You infected a quarter of us and 200,000 of us died - less than the deaths each year from the common flu.

And here you are again today.

Each time we call you a Pandemic.
Each time we panic.
Each time you kill far less of us, and yet we panic far more.

Because you are NOT a pandemic of DEATH or even DISEASE. You are a pandemic of FEAR.

In December of 2019, that fear showed up in our media, in our stock markets, and in our, every day lives....that same big fright you've given us today.

But you’ve been here several times and this time, we see you for who you really are:

A GLOBAL GHOST of our WORRIES, ANXIETIES and deepest FEARS.

And as with any ghost, you can only grow if we feed you.
And if we don’t, YOU DISAPPEAR.

(John 10:10- "The thief [Satan] comes only to steal and kill and destroy...")

So this time,
instead of FEAR, we choose FREEDOM
“But now, this is what the Lord says…Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine.” ~ Isaiah 43:1

Instead of PANIC, we chose PEACE.
“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.” ~ 2 Timothy 1:7

Instead of LOSS, we chose LOVE.
"And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them." - I John 4:16

Thank you for VISITING.
We appreciate the REMINDER.
YOU CAN GO NOW.

** To turn VIRAL FRIGHT to VIRAL FIGHT:
1 - PRAY PRAY PRAY PRAY PRAY PRAY!!!
(1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 - Always be joyful. Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.)

WASH YOUR HANDS
(Ephesians 5:26 That he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word,

3 - CALM YOUR MIND
(John 14:27 - Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.)

4 - PASS THIS MESSAGE ON
(Mark 16:15 - And then he told them, “Go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone.)

Bohol designers donate reusable face masks for frontliners

It’s crucial for health care workers, doctors, and nurses on the front lines of the coronavirus disease to have the proper protective gear to lower the risk of contracting Covid-19, but the world's mask supply is being so rapidly depleted.

Health experts have suggested homemade masks as a last resort for health care providers in places where face masks are not available.

As the COVID-19 pandemic rages on,  designers Paul and Rose Ranara and EJ Relampagos donate reusable face masks as the province is experiencing a shortage of surgical masks and respirators.

Good Samaritans are rising to the occasion, helping the government in its efforts to arrest the virus.

Cases in point: Bohol designers EJ Relampagos and Paul and Rose Ranara.

They have created washable and reusable face masks intended for frontliners in the province.

EJ and her staff at EJ Relampagos Couture donated reusable masks to frontliners at the Gov. Celestino Gallares Memorial Hospital, Borja Community Hospital, barangay health workers and  quarantine facility team at the old Tagbilaran  airport

“This is my only available resources that I can share at this point in time," said EJ.

Paul and Rose (of Rose Paul Silhouette) are also producing washable face masks for our frontliners.

In a Facebook post, they need volunteers to help them produce more masks.

"Calling volunteers who can help us produce face masks to donate to the health sector. We have the raw materials and high speed sewing machines but we lack the manpower because most of our sewers already went home to be with their families," they said.

Thank you for the love, thank you for the malasakit!

May your tribe increase!

Powerful Bible verses to fight fear and help you heal in tough times

The COVID-19 pandemic is confusing and frightening millions of people as it refused to die down.

It has redefined social graces--- no beso-beso, hugs and kisses, and shaking hands. People are reminded to observe "social distancing" --- that is three feet away or farther from each other.

The virus has also affected social life. Birthday parties, weddings, concerts, graduations and the like have either been postponed or cancelled.

To all who were advised for home quarantine, please stay at home!  We have the whole community to protect.

It's 14 days to save lives,14 days to save the community, 14 days to save the world. We should not ignore the sound advice of medical professionals and public health experts. Remember, a little sacrifice can make a big difference.

The pandemic also questions our faith. It’s easy to lose faith when pain is plaguing our mind, body, and soul. But no matter how hard the situation is, no matter how unsure the world is,  we can count on finding some strength in G-d’s word.

Here are just a few of the great verses found in the Bible about G-d's great power to deliver us from fear and for healing:

2 Chronicles 7:13-14 -"If I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or if I command the locust to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among My people, and My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land."

Psalm 91- He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.  I will say of the LORD, "He is my refuge and my fortress, my G-d, in whom I trust." Surely he will save you from the fowler's snare and from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart. You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday. A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you.

Isaiah 41:13- "For I am the LORD your G-d who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you."

Psalm 6:2-"O Lord, heal me, for my bones are shaking with terror."

Jeremiah 17:14-"Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved; for you are my praise."

Psalm 27:1- The LORD is my light and my salvation - so why should I be afraid? The LORD is my fortress, protecting me from danger, so why should I tremble?

Isaiah 41:10-"Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your G-d. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand."

Philippians 4:6-7 "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to G-d. And the peace of G-d, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

Deuteronomy 31:8- "The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged."

1 Peter 5:7-"Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you."

John 14:27-"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid."

Joshua 1:9-"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your G-d is with you wherever you go.

Psalm 23:4 -"Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me."

2 Timothy 1:7-"For G-d has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind."

Psalm 34:4-"I sought the Lord, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears."

Matthew 9:20–22- "Then suddenly a woman . . . came up behind him and touched the fringe of his cloak, for she said to herself, 'If I only touch his cloak, I will be made well.' Jesus turned, and seeing her he said, 'Take heart, daughter; your faith has made you well.'"

Let us help each other

 

Bohol Capitol

The province of Bohol will temporarily close its borders as part of its "preventive measure" against the spread of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic.

 

Governor Arthur Yap signed executive order (EO) No. 8 declaring "community quarantine" all over the province effective March 16 until March 20.

 

Yap said that since health is a primary public concern, it is within his mandate to protect the people.

 

“We need this (community quarantine) so we can have a direction on how to beat this problem and how to take care each of other,” Yap added.

 

We will be partially, conditionally quarantined or locked down (whichever term you prefer) for four days. It's a bitter pill but necessary.

 

Last week, I decided to cancel my trips outside Bohol because it is time for us to follow and observe community quarantine and social distancing measures to avoid overwhelming our hospitals with persons under investigation (PUIs) and confirmed cases. The more patients we send in, the greater number of doctors and nurses will be quarantined. I don't want their operations will be disrupted.

 

Jeycelle Espejo-Inting of Dr. Cecilio Putong National High School shared a relevant article on her Facebook about social distancing.

 

"It might be a very alien concept to Filipinos but this will be crucial in the next few days and weeks.

 

"DO YOUR PART as a good Filipino citizen by staying at home, avoiding social gatherings, meetings and crowded places. You never know whether the person you stood next to or spoke to or sat with was exposed or not. Especially since we cannot test everybody at the moment and we are still waiting for more test kits. Social Distancing is infinitely more productive than insisting on going to a crowded place and using a mask meant for use by HCW healthcare workers(!)"

 

"Just think about this: The moment you get sick, you put your entire household at risk (risk particularly increases if you happen to live with your older relatives, parents.

 

"It is NOT business as usual. This is the reason why schools have been suspended and companies have allowed employees to work from home. Large gatherings, conferences and meetings have been postponed. Travelling might not be a good idea right now.

 

"Maintain good hygiene, take care of yourself to boost your immune system, practice cough etiquette and proper hand washing.

 

"If you are ordered to self-quarantine for two weeks, do it properly (no cheating!)
Monitor for symptoms, do NOT panic.

 

"The concept is to LOWER and DELAY the EPIDEMIC PEAK. This will ensure that our hospitals are not overwhelmed and those most vulnerable (60 and up) are protected with adequate resources."

 

Here's another article shared to us by reader Jocelyn Peñaflor (address unknown):

 

*QUIET CHINA*
Written by a Chinese Pastor sent to a brother in Istanbul via friends in Singapore

 

The hustle and bustle of China finally quiets down, the restless society comes to a still, and the restless Chinese people gradually calm down.

 

The wild animals that were once held by humans in cages finally managed to keep humans in cages.

 

Humans finally lower their proud head and have begun to think quietly: are we still the king of the earth?

 

Mankind finally feels the power of nature once again.

 

In the face of the threat of death, human beings have only begun to reflect seriously, only to realize that a lack of awe-inspiring social atmosphere will lead to more harm and more risks.

The greedy heart is being purified by the virus, and the mouth that loves to eat is being punished by the virus. The people who have been soaking in the bright red and green places all day have been driven home by the virus, saying.... "Go home!"

 

There are fewer and fewer people on the street, few cars on the road.

 

The air is getting fresher...., the haze is gone..., the sky is getting bluer...., the sun is getting brighter...., family lives are getting warmer, harmonial, and cordial.  People's hearts have become more and more calm.

 

People who haven’t read for years have picked up books at home. Parents and children who had no communication, couples who couldn’t speak few words a year have opened up the conversation box.  Children who do not know how to respect the elderly have began to be filial.

The virus teaches human beings a vivid and profound lesson. It makes us understand awe. It also lets us know what is called "good times".

It also makes us feel true love on earth. It makes us gradually fall in love  "Return to the Road", we really should be grateful for this "enemy", we need such an enemy to give us a "reminder" and give us  "empowerment".

 

The virus will not leave so quickly. It needs to see the CULTIVATION of human good habits. The virus will not continue to rag, because human love will gather more power to keep the virus away. Time will tell us everything. time will also prove what is right.

 

The virus reminds us that THERE IS AN ALMIGHTY.  And humans are just humans.

 

And an anonymous letter forwarded to us by our readers, I think worthy to be shared:

 

To All Boholanos,

 

I know how hard it is to absorb the economic downturn due to Ncov19. Some employees were forced leave for a month or indefinitely. In short, jobless.

 

Bohol is strongly dependent in tourism; no tourist, no income.  And this does not stop there.  The multiplier effect is very evident. Tours and events turn out so low, flights are cancelled, Hotel reservation almost zero, restos, small time and big-time business owners are now worried how to sustain the business in the next few months(rent, utilities and salaries).Van owners too are hardly hit. No tour means no money to pay the monthy car loans.

 

Let us help this Govt manage and overcome the spread of this virus by exercising due deligence and be responsible on our own actions. Keep all Elders and kids away from people with travel history. Avoid socializing for the meantime (Distance Socializing muna).

 

Sa mga tourist van drivers, receptionist sa mga resorts and hotel, if you feel you were exposed with the virus, do a self qurantine and get yourself tested.

 

Sa mga seaman, please lang gyud do, malooy mo sa Bohol, let us keep the stat. You know what to do.

 

LET US AVOID COMMUNITY TRANSMISSION, HOPE and PRAY FOR THE BEST.

 

KEEP BOHOL a COVID19 FREE.

 

My prayer: "Our G-d and G-d of all generations, in our great need we pour out our hearts to You. The days and weeks of suffering are hard to endure. In our struggle, let us feel that You are near, a presence whose care enfolds us. Rouse in us the strength to overcome fear and anxiety, and brighten our spirits with the assurance of Your love."

 

We can draw strength from the 2013 earthquake. It was kindness at its finest.

Thank you to all our leaders, doctors, nurses, police, army, Coast Guard, emergency responders
and volunteers.

 

Let us help each other. Shame on those who think only of themselves in times of crisis.

Queennie Castrodes: Genuine and gorgeous

That Queennie Klaire Felias Castrodes is more than just a pretty face is amply proven by the awards she received when she graduated senior high at Saint Mary Academy in Guidulman town. She is now a diligent first year Business Management student at Holy Name University.

Queennie Castrodes:  'My crown is in my heart, not on my head.'

That Queennie is a model, a campus personality, and a beauty queen. She is part of TAN model, she became Miss Majic Model 2018, Jagna Next Top Model 2018, Miss Holy Name University-College of Business Administration (HNU-CBA) 2019 second runner-up, Miss Silka Bohol 2019 1st runner-up, and Mutya sa Cabawan 2019.

That Queennie has the star quality that in 2018 she was a finalist of ABS-CBN's Pinoy Big Brother (Starhunt). She was so gorgeous on national television.

"She is good. She is pretty," says Khim Roger Ryan Magtagad of The Art Nouveau (TAN). "And she is one of those new TAN models who has potential and I'm looking forward to her future endeavors."

At 19 (turning 20 on December 14), Queennie stands 5'6",  weighs 119 lbs., and wears
medium-size shirt and size-9 shoes.

Incidentally, Queennie is one of the 15 candidates of this year's Mutya sa Tagbilaran representing Barangay Cabawan.

An early favorite of Mutya, VRS is gruelling her with Q and A.

What are your preparations for Mutya sa Tagbilaran 2020? I attend workshops, trainings and practices and at the same time I go to school. I don’t really deprive myself of the food that I want to eat. I think the secret is you just take everything in moderation.

Have you always wanted to join beauty pageant since you were small? Yes, since I was a young I always wanted to become a beauty queen. Right now, being part of the Mutya sa Tagbilaran 2020, I am in my first step towards fullfilling it. And I am really idolising our two Miss Universe winners-Pia Wurztbach and Catriona Gray. I want to follow them.

Would you rather be smart but not too beautiful, or beautiful but not too smart? Smart but not too beautiful. I believe I can be beautiful in so many ways with the help of advanced technology. But if you are smart, it is something more important and applicable. Being smart is being knowledgeable.

The Coronavirus disease (Covid-19) scare has affected the country's tourism industry including Bohol. How you will convince people here and abroad that it is safe and more fun in Bohol? It is  still more fun in Bohol because of the friendly and hospitable people who add color and joy to the place. It's safe because our government officials and authorities are doing their best to promote preventive measures.

What do you think is the smartest thing that you’ve done so far? Stand up for myself and do not depend on others.

What do you think is the biggest decision that you’ve made in your life? Being an independent person specially that I am now in my college. It is really hard to adjust my daily living without my family.

What are your winning traits? Being true to my self and keep my feet always on the ground.

Queennie Castrodes, 19, says that she has a lot of bashers. 'I’m thankful to them because they challenge me to improve myself.'

What winning tips you get from your trainor/handler? Be true to yourself and don't ever change. Ate Khim reminds me that 'my crown is in my heart, not on my head.'

How do you handle bashers? Since I started joining beauty contests, I have had a lot of bashers. I’m thankful to them because they challenge me to improve myself. I don't give it a big deal as long as I know myself and I don't harm others.

Do you have secrets sustaining your poise, your grace under pressure, especially during the crucial points in any contest? I just give my best shots and keep a positive attitude.

What is your best asset and why? My personality because I am genuine and I am also pretty inside and out.

Who’s your  role model? My mother (Mary Ann Chiela Castrodes), our source of love and inspiration.

Any other man whom you admire? My father (Edgar Allan Castodes). He is responsible and loving father. 

What is your favorite quote? I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Describe yourself in three (3) words: Rainbow. Beautiful. Simple.

How's your love life? It is pretty fine and I am contended on what i have right now.

What do you find sexy in a man? Aside from his physical looks,  I find him sexy if he is God- fearing.

And what turns you off? Disrespectful.

What is your advocacy?  I'm joining Mutya sa Tagbilaran 2020 because I believe this is a better   venue to promote the local (Ginamang Cabawanon) and native products of Cabawan.
