Duterte orders Cebu to follow protocols from COVID-19 task force

Cebu previously tested passengers upon arrival in the airport. The IATF requires this screening on the 7th day of travelers' quarantine."The President has decided that the IATF protocols must be implemented by the Cebu province," said Palace spokesman Harry Roque, quoting the Office of the Executive Secretary. This "was just a preparation for full implementation" of Duterte's decision on Cebu, Roque said in a press briefing.

"The President has also considered the DOH critique and has decided that Cebu province must abide with the IATF arrival protocols," said Roque. Video courtesy of PTV Garcia told Duterte her province tests inbound travelers for the coronavirus upon arrival, allow them to go on home quarantine monitored by the barangay, and undergo another COVID-19 screening on the seventh day, Roque earlier said.

Cebu authorities, he said, also considered "humanitarian grounds" for Filipinos returning from abroad, who want to immediately go home to their families. Garcia last year also made pronouncements that differed from the national government's directives.

Hahaha...bobo lang talaga Cebu? Mahigit na isang taong ang pandemya. Tapos pagsasabihan pa ni Kanor na sumunod? Kailangan pa bang i memorize yan? Pag bobo and lider nabobo lahat. Hahaha
