MANDAUE CITY, Cebu—With only a week left before the closure of the cemeteries in Mandaue City to prevent the spread of COVID-19, several people have started to visit the graves of their departed

Among them are Gina Beltran from barangay Subangdaku and Amy Cortes from barangay Ibabo-Estancia.

They usually visit their departed loved ones during Kalag-Kalag on November 1 but since the government is prohibiting gatherings due to the COVID-19 threat, all they can do is follow the order and, thus, visit earlier than usual. “Nanagkot nalang mi og sayo kay ig 1 ug 2 dili naman ta ka sulod gyud, manira man,” Beltran said when this writer caught up with him at the St. Joseph’s Catholic Cemetery in Barangay Guizo.

Aside from St. Joseph, there are three other cemeteries in Barangay Guizo: Mandaue City Municipal Cemetery, Grosmar Memorial Garden and Man Park.Pray from home Lawyer John Eddu Ibañez, executive secretary of Mayor Jonas Cortes said that starting this Saturday, October 24, 2020, personnel from Mandaue City Police Office Disaster Risk Reduction Management , and Traffic Enforcement Agency of Mandaue will be deployed in the seven cemeteries in the city to make sure that safety protocols will be followed. They will stay until a week after cemeteries are opened again on November 4.
