Returning overseas Filipinos who arrive at the Mactan-Cebu airport may soon be able to spend a quarantine period of not more than five days as long as they are fully vaccinated.

On the fifth day, those who were already fully vaccinated will again be swabbed. If they test negative for COVID-19, they will be released from the quarantine facility.

Last September 7, Governor Garcia met with top regional officials from the Department of Tourism, Department of Health, Bureau of Quarantine , Hotel, Resort, and Restaurant Association of Cebu, and the Overseas Workers Welfare and Administration discussing the new protocols.
