A closed-circuit television camera footage earlier showed pieces of used test kits falling off from a garbage bag loaded on a sidecar of a scavenger’s pedicab.
Manila Mayor Francisco “Isko Moreno” Domagoso earlier said authorities are already tracking down the source of the used rapid test kits.
Manila Public Information Office chief explained that the used test kits would not have ended up in the hands of a scavenger if it was properly disposed of.
