The Department of Health (DOH) confirmed the local transmission of the BA.2.12.1 subvariant of COVID-19 as three persons in Iloilo were found to have this, Health Undersecretary Maria Rosario Vergeire said Tuesday.

Vergeire said one was a returning overseas Filipino who is fully vaccinated. The vaccination status of one of the two persons in Iloilo is still being verified, said Vergeire.

She said that the Department of Health has recommended to our implementing units to use RT-PCR and continue with active surveillance to find out if there further transmission.
