The facts: Doctors have no way of manipulating the COVID-19 tally, since the number of those who test positive come from laboratories certified by the DOH and the Research Institute for Tropical Medicine using RT-PCR tests. Since March 30, positive rapid antibody tests in the “NCR Plus” region have also been included in the national count.
Why we fact-checked this: Facebook page “A DUMB Adam Betlog” posted a video with this claim, and the video has garnered over 43,000 reactions, 13,000 comments, and 18,000 shares as of writing.
