For officials of the national and city governments, the event that drew roughly 100,000 attendees was a success. “Gatherings are safe for as long as the minimum health standard is followed and the event is held in an open-air venue,” Feliciano said. “This ‘new normal’ is only a prelude to Mayor Michael Rama’s aspiration to move to the “real normal”, we can expect more large gatherings and events to happen. However, we must remember that protection is a shared responsibility and everyone must take accountability for their actions,” Feliciano continued.

“We should not also be complacent on all these because we will really have problems when we don’t go back to our basic practices on minimum health standards,” said Bernadas in a recent press conference. Earlier, DOH-7, through its chief pathologist Dr. Mary Jean Loreche, described the Arat na Cebu concert as worrisome and that it may end up as a “superspreader event.”Mayor Michael Rama defended his decision to allow crowd-gathering events despite concerns raised.
