How risky is coronavirus to the Philippines?
The Philippines is at a far greater risk of witnessing increased cases of the novel

working in the said firm. Also, in China, there are more than 230,000 migrant
Filipinos often referred to as Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW) are working there
particularly in Hong Kong and Macau as household workers.
After the coronavirus outbreak on 2 February, a temporary ban was imposed on the
workers from travelling to China or its special administrative regions. The ban was
lifted on 18th February allowing OFWs to return to Hong Kong and Macau.
According to WorldPop which ranked Philippines 14th among the 30 high-risk

countries, Manila is among the top 30 global cities receiving airline passengers from
18 high-risk cities in China.
Chinese nationals account for most of the tourist population visiting the country as
trade and cultural relations have increased between the two countries in the recent
past.
