CEBU CITY, Philippines - Lawmakers in Cebu slammed a member of the national government’s anti-COVID task force over his column recounting how they warned the province of threats of the

Delta variant

In a joint statement, representatives from Cebu province’s seven districts and a party list group called out Dr. Edsel Salvana for his recently published column about Cebu and the Delta variant. It was signed by Representatives Eduardo Gullas , Wilfredo Caminero , Pablo John Garcia , Janice Salimbangon , Vincent Franco ‘Duke’ Frasco , Emmarie ‘Lolypop’ Ouano-Dizon , Peter John Calderon , and Sonny Lagon .

“At a critical time when Cebu should hold a united front, we find no cogent reason why Dr. Salvana issued a statement that greatly undermined Cebu’s COVID-19 response efforts other than to cause a great divide and stir panic among the Cebuanos,” it added.
