Three other cases are listed under China. They were the tourists known as the first three persons to be found COVID-19 positive in the country. The DOH labeled them as imported cases.
The International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses named the novel coronavirus as SARS-CoV-2 or severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2.
It causes mild symptoms such as fever and cough for most people but experts have warned that older people with preexisting health conditions were more vulnerable to the coronavirus, particularly those aged over 60-years-old.
To prevent infection, health authorities are urging people to practice regular hand washing, cover the mouth and nose when coughing and sneezing, and avoid close contact with those who show respiratory symptoms.
The World Health Organization has declared the disease as a global pandemic.
To date, the virus, which was first detected in Hubei, China late last year, has so far infected over 870,000 people in 180 countries and territories. Of the number, more than 43,000 died while over 185,000 recovered.
President Rodrigo Duterte has placed the entire country under a state of calamity in a bid to prevent the further spread of the infectious respiratory illness. The entire island of Luzon was also placed under lockdown, restricting the movement of more than 50 million Filipinos.
