[Translation: We took it at face value that the study they made had basis and we support the decision of the President to keep for now the use of face shields.] After a series of contradicting statements and calls to lift such policy, Duterte said on Monday that the public must continue to wear face shields outdoors and indoors for now. During his weekly address, he recognized the inconvenience of wearing such, but he also emphasized that it was a “small price to pay” to keep the public safe from the coronavirus.
Following the confusion as the government flip-flopped on its face shield policy, Senate President Vicente Sotto III filed a resolution on Wednesday seeking an investigation into the efficacy of face shields.
Continuing such a policy, when the average man and woman on the street know intuitively that face shields offer no real protection when worn with a mask, only lead to a further erosion of trust in both government and so-called expert creating additional skepticism and resentment.

Is someone profiting from mandatory face shield policy? Senators say it's possibleDapat mag tawag ng senate hearing kung may kumikita sa bentahan ng face shields. I-summon ang divisoria at baclaran, atbp ipa tawag din ang mga mayors ng nasasakupan na nasasabing mga lugar. 🤣🤣🤣 In aid of election este legislation. 😅 Highly possible. Since officials in our health sector seems to rely on face shields without adequate and substantial evidences for effectiveness and reliance, which is really stupid since they are mostly with phd’s or md’s already.
