For this edition of VOX POPULI, The Bohol Tribune is featuring the netizens’ answers and comments to two (2) questions, namely:

Question 1 – Dear Doctors: Dili ba kaha angay nga e-revise na pud nato atong protocol re swab test kay gakadaghan man gud ang Covid Cases sa Bohol?

Question 2 – Ikaw, higala, unsa may imong gikatampo ug gihimo aron dili modaghan ang covid cases sa Bohol?

These are the netizens’ answers and comments to question number 1:  Dear Doctors: Dili ba kaha angay nga e-revise na pud nato atong protocol re swab test kay gakadaghan man gud ang Covid Cases sa Bohol?

  • from Karr Michael Budlong: It would seem like complacent ra kaau ang majority sa katawhan sa bohol. It’s both saddening and alarming maam.

  • from Elmarth Paul G. Luminarias: Dili gyud unta wad.on ang swabtest pero daghan Boholano mo reklamo kay di kuno ka afford.

1) STAY HOME 

But if you can’t, please:
