According to GMA's 24 Oras, one hospital, and two lying-in clinics, did not accept her.
"Kailangan daw ng swab test… pag mabilisan P4,800 yata. Wala po kaming pera kasi kargador lang po ‘yung asawa ko," the woman stated as based on Mariz Umali's report.
Maria Ronessa Serna, a member of the Task Force Disiplina, revealed that the mother was already very weak and the task force was on their way home when the woman hailed for them.
"Manganganak na po, palabas na po talaga ‘yung bata. Pagtayo, putok na si panubigan at hindi na po niya kinaya eh. Pag akyat po ng mobile, higa na po," said Serna.
The mom also expressed her heartache, saying that if it is an emergency, she wished that the swab test can be done away with, especially for the poor.
"Kung emergency lang po sana, sana matanggal na lang po ‘yung swab test. Ang hirap po talaga lalo na sa kagaya namin na kapos-palad talaga," the mom said.
