A city councilor raised concerns over lapses in health protocols during the distribution of social amelioration program (SAP) in payment centers that exposed beneficiaries to risk from Covid-19 infection.
Cagayan de Oro’s response to the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic earned a commendation from the national inter-agency task force during its visit to the region.
The City Government of Davao imposed a 14-day hard lockdown of Purok 8, Barangay Tomas Monteverde after 65 individuals tested positive of Covid-19 in their RT-PCR test.
The Davao City government has made two adjustments in its quarantine protocols for commuters: back riding on motorcycles will be allowed for all, and face shields must be worn inside public transport units.
Persons who will break the 14-day home quarantine as part of protocol for Covid-19 testing will now be penalized according to an ordinance passed by the City Council last August 11.
