Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, February 5) — The Department of Health said it is looking into the ammonia leak that occurred inside an ice plant in Navotas.
Health Undersecretary Ma. Rosario Vergeire called the incident at the T.P. Marcelo & Co. ice plant "unique," and assured the public the agency has standards in place to ensure this would not happen in areas chosen as COVID-19 vaccine warehouses.
"'Yung nangyari dito sa Navotas noong isang araw, ito po ay atin na ring iniimbestigahan para nakakapag-implement tayo ng mga standards at maiwasan po natin ang pangyayari na ganito sa susunod pa," Vergeire said in a Friday press briefing.
