___________________________________________________________________________

We would like to inform the Public that currently ZCMC has shortage of oxygen. We are admitting about thirty (30) COVID-19 positive patients every day. Responding to this, ZCMC opened additional wards to accommodate the surge of patients. About a month ago, ZCMC has already prepared for possible oxygen shortage and has renewed contract for 12 000 tanks with an outsourced oxygen supplier within the city. However, the demand has increased due to the current surge of COVID-19 cases and more patients admitted needing high flow oxygen. The contracted supplier will have to refill from another oxygen plant in Cebu City and deliver to ZCMC in staggered basis of 100 tanks with a turnaround time of 1 week. ZCMC has shouldered all expenses for the purchase of oxygen.

We appeal to the Public to strictly observe the minimum health protocols and avoid gathering or going to crowded places. As the only Level 3 Government hospital with specialty care services, ZCMC is now overwhelmed. The continuous increase in COVID-19 patients will further overwhelm the health workers and possibly compromise the services we render.

We need the Public's urgent cooperation to help us curb this surge. - Oct. 5, 2021
