PNRC MEDICAL STATION: Philippine National Red Cross (PNRC) Chairman Senator Richard J. Gordon gives words of encouragement to Maridel Delgado, a 19-year old pregnant evacuee at the PhilSports Arena (formerly ULTRA) before sending her to the Rizal Medical Center in Pasig through PNRC ambulance. Delgado was on her last stage of pregnancy and was found to be already in labor when she went to the PNRC Medical Station for a check up. Gordon set up the medical station at PhilSports Arena and other evacuation centers to stop the further spread of diseases in the centers where people rendered homeless by tropical storm “Ondoy” are temporarily given shelter.
