The public was urged on Monday, August 3, to voluntarily impose upon themselves an enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) mindset.

Dr. Tony Leachon, former adviser to the National Task Force fighting the coronavirus disease , made the appeal due to the alarming rise in the cases of persons with COVID-19.

“If you are senior citizens, you don’t go to restaurants and expose yourself particularly those with conditions,” he said. Leachon also urged the government to stop using rapid antibody tests and only use reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction in testing for COVID-19. Although the President did not like what the medical community did in publicly demanding for a return to ECQ in Mega Manila, Leachon assured they did not intend it that way.

READ: Medical community’s plea for ‘timeout’ and Mega Manila's return to ECQGoing back to ecq will grind the economy to a screeching halt. Who's gonna pay you? Where will the funds for the treatment come from? May mga nasa labas at supermarkets na hindi naman essential business — namamasyal o nakatambay lang. Dapat rumoronda at sinisita ng mga guwardiya.

Para makahinga: Mga doktor nanawagang ibalik ang Metro Manila sa ECQSila na po ang gagamot sa sarili nila. Hindi naman po kasi tayo ang priority. Maybe these government officials should experience it to understand the situation. Leaders should be hands on, not just serve by holding a pen or doing zoom, maybe, since its pandemic we should see them too the streets or hospitals, serving the Filipinos. Kapit lang mga frontliners may awa ang Diyos... Sana makinig ang IATF sa inyo... Wag susuko pinagdadasal din namin kayo sa inyong kaligtasan.
