– Despite the province still being under modified general community quarantine for the month of December, the local government unit has eased some guidelines meant to curb the spread of coronavirus disease .
On Wednesday , Governor Jonvic Remulla announced that minors are now allowed to go to malls within the province as long as they are accompanied by their guardians. Just like their adult companions, the minors are required to wear face masks and face shields when going out of the house. Mall operations are extended until 9 p.m. this month, with an 8:30 p.m. cut-off for customers coming in.
