COVID-19
On 31 December 2019, the World World Health Organization (WHO) was alerted to a cluster of
pneumonia patients in Wuhan City, Hubei Province of China. One week later, on 7 January
2020, Chinese authorities confirmed that they had identified a novel (new) corona virus (COVID-
19) as the cause of the pneumonia.
Epidemiological evidence shows that COVID-19 can be transmitted from one individual to
another. During previous outbreaks due to other corona viruses, including Middle-East
Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV) and the severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome
Coronavirus (SARS-CoV), human-to-human transmission most commonly occurred through
droplets, personal contact, and contaminated objects (fomites). The modes of transmission of
COVID-19 are likely to be similar.
The precise zoonotic (animal) origin of the COVID-19 is stil uncertain. The virus has been
identified in environmental samples from a live animal market in Wuhan, and some human
cases have been epidemiologically linked to this market. Other coronavirus, such as, SARS and
MERS, are also zoonotic, and can be transmitted from animals (civet cats and dromedary
camels, respectively) to humans.
On January 20, 2020, the first case of COVID-19 was reported in the Philippines in a 38-year-
old, female, Chinese national. Immediate case investigation and contact tracing was conducted.
Her companion, a 44-year-old, male, Chinese national became PUI and admitted in the same
hospital. He was positive for COVID-19 and died on 1 February 2020. The third confirmed case
was reported on 5 February 2020. She was a 60-year-old, female, Chinese national. All
confirmed cases had travel history to Wuhan City.
On 30 January 2020, WHO declared that the outbreak of COVID-19 constitute a Public Health
Event of International concern. This a call to action for all countries to be prepared for
containment, including active surveillance, early detection, isolation and case management,
contact tracing and prevention of further spread.

A. SCENARIOS
Table 1. Scenario
The contingency measures in this document aligns with the 2019 NDRRMC Harmonized
National Contingency Plan (HNCP) for Covid-19. This will enable DepEd to have better
coordination horizontally, i.e. DepEd with other NDRRMC agencies, and vertically, i.e. DepEd
Central Office down to the schools.
A. Activation
The activation of DepEd’s Contingency Plan for Covid-19 is aligned with the activation of the
Harmonized National Contingency Plan. This include any of the following triggers:
B. Deactivation
The trigger for deactivation of this CP on Covid-19 will be based on the declaration of the
Secretary, RDs, SDSs and School Heads upon the recommendation of
IATF/National/Regional DRRMC1 and other authorized government agencies.
C. Non-activation
• In the event that the HNCP is not activated, the response mechanisms detailed in this plan can
still be relevant for any Virus transmission.

event that the hazard occurs. Example of these committees are: Communication and
Warning, Evacuation, Health and WASH, etc. Refer to RA 10821 or the Children’s
Emergency Relief and Protection Act for all the duties and responsibilities that we should

This part shall serve as an inventory of all existing human resources, supplies, and
equipment of the school that can be mobilized in preparing for response and during
response and early recovery after the onslaught of a hazard. Using Tables 7a and 7b
below, you will also be able to identify the projected needs in terms of human resources
and supplies & equipment and determine possible sources of funds to fill in the gaps in
training or procurement of equipment and supplies.
Table 7a lists down all human resources that you would need to prepare and respond to
the hazard that you have chosen. You can list down all the teaching and non-teaching
personnel who have capacities/skills that are vital during response or early recovery.
Examples of these personnel are those trained in Basic Life Support, First Aid,
Psychological First Aid/Psychosocial Support, rescue, Incident Command System, etc.
In Table 7a, you may include external resources or those personnel from partner
agencies and organizations (i.e. local DRRM Office, barangay rescue team, BFP, PNP,
Red Cross, etc) who can provide their skills and services durng response and early
recovery phase.
In Table 7b, list down all the equipment and supplies that you would need to prepare
and respond to the hazard that you have chosen. Indicate also their present conditions
whether they are fully functional or needs replacement.
In filling out the projected needs of both Tables 7a and 7b, bear in mind the number of
personnel and learners that you have in your school in order to assess if you have
enough human and material resources to cater to the needs of your personnel and
learners.
This contingency plan for IMMALOG ELEMENTARY SCHOOL shall be effective and upon
publication. The plan shall be considered a “working document “and be subjected to continuous
review and enhancement by the DepEd Technical Working Group based on latest scientific
studies about geological hazards, risk assessment findings and innovations in DRRM policies
and standards.
