紐約時報：
| With more than 70,000 infections and 1,800 deaths, the Philippines has been hit hard by the coronavirus. President Rodrigo Duterte has empowered the police to go home to home searching for the sick, and warned that anyone not wearing a mask will be arrested. |
|
| Jason Gutierrez, who is based in Manila, spoke to our colleagues from the Coronavirus Briefing about the government’s heavy-handed approach. |
|
| What is the status of the virus in the Philippines? |
|
| The government hasn’t really been upfront about what’s happening. President Duterte just said that all we can do is wait for the experts in the United States or China to develop a vaccine and basically advised the public to follow the rules or risk arrest. |
|
| Our Health Ministry is seen by many as really inefficient. It lets Mr. Duterte say what he wants to say and does not clarify it in public. |

|
| What is the situation in Manila? |
|
| People in the city have to go through checkpoints, and cops go around some areas in fatigues, like they’re going into battle. Some carry large firearms. It’s worrying because it’s militarizing the response. |
|
| In some areas, especially the impoverished parts, people are really afraid to leave their homes and are basically told to just wait it out for food and medical advice or risk being arrested. |
|
| What has the response been to President Duterte saying the police would arrest people who didn’t wear masks? |
|
| In a lot of places, you see people in public always wearing medical masks. Ironically, he does not wear a mask whenever he meets his officials, and he only wore a mask when he made that threat. |
|
| Militarizing the response is probably his way of telling the public that he, as a strongman president, is doing something. |

菲律賓對病毒的嚴厲應對
菲律賓有70,000例感染和1800例死亡，受到了冠狀病毒的嚴重打擊。總統羅德里戈·杜特爾特（Rodrigo Duterte）已授權警察在家中尋找病人，並警告任何不戴口罩的人將被捕。
總部位於馬尼拉的傑森·古鐵雷斯（Jason Gutierrez）向我們的冠狀病毒簡報中的同事們談到了政府的嚴厲做法。
菲律賓的病毒狀況如何？
政府對發生的事情並沒有真正提前。杜特爾特總統剛才說，我們所能做的就是等待美國或中國的專家研製出疫苗，並基本上建議公眾遵守規則或冒險逮捕。
許多人認為我們的衛生部效率低下。它讓杜特爾特先生說了他想說的話，並且沒有在公開場合澄清。

馬尼拉的情況如何？
這座城市的人們必須經過檢查站，警察疲憊不堪地奔波於某些地區，就像他們上陣一樣。有些攜帶大型槍支。令人擔憂的是，它使回應變得軍事化。
在某些地區，特別是貧困地區，人們真的很害怕離開家園，基本上被告知要等食物，醫療建議，否則有被捕的危險。
對杜特爾特總統說警察將逮捕不戴口罩的人的反應是什麼？
在很多地方，您會看到公眾總是戴著醫用口罩。具有諷刺意味的是，他每次見面時都沒有戴口罩，只有在威脅時才戴口罩。
軍事上的回應可能是他告訴公眾他作為強人總統正在做某事的方式。
