CDNTopStories: It’s still a status quo on swab policies for arriving Returning Overseas Filipinos (ROF) and Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW) here in Cebu.

Stakeholders in Cebu province held a meeting with Governor Gwendolyn Garcia on Tuesday following recent pronouncements from the Palace.

Loreche pointed out that local officials here will have to follow Provincial Ordinance No. 2021-04, mandating ROFs and OFWs to be swabbed upon arrival at the airport, and on the 7th day for Cebu residents. “If you really look at it, hindi naman talaga tayo nag violate. It has always been in compliance with the IATF guidelines on testing protocols and quarantine,” Loreche explained.

IATF instructed health authorities nationwide to quarantine arriving ROFs and OFWs for 14 days, and collect swab samples for COVID testing on the 7th day.The first round of swab tests is upon arrival at MCIA. The second one will be conducted on the 7th day.
