LGUs to enforce 6-hour curfew hours in NCR amid Delta variant threat

Longer curfew hours will be implemented in the National Capital Region starting Sunday, July 25, amid the rising cases of COVID-19 Delta variant.

The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority said Saturday, July 24, that the Metro Manila Council will enforce a six-hour curfew from 10 p.m. to 4 a.m. in the region which was recently put under general community quarantine with heightened restrictions. “We need to limit the movement of the public through the imposition of longer curfew hours. Since the Delta variant spreads exponentially, we should not let our guards down and implement necessary restrictions to contain the virus,” MMDA Chairman Benhur Abalos said.

“While the Metro Manila Council recognizes the imperative to gradually and cautiously open the economy in order to increase business activities, reduce unemployment and underemployment, and promote economic growth, it is equally mindful of the paramount interests of life and health and the strict implementation of the prevent, detect, isolate, treat, and reintegrate strategies,” the resolution stated.
