According to Baguio City Mayor Benjamin Magalong, the high tally was caused by “dumping of results” after test results accummulated at the molecular laboratory due to the volume of specimens being processed daily.

More than 2,000 tests are now being conducted daily as a result of the surge in cases. Because of the Delta variant, the city made it mandatory to swab all contact contacts. Aggressive community testing is also contineously being done.
