MANILA - The Archdiocese of Manila on Saturday said it would not hold public religious activities from Aug. 3 to 14 in response to calls by medical groups to revert Metro Manila to tough lockdown.

In a pastoral instruction titled "We Hear the Call," Bishop Broderick Pabillo said all churches and shrines of the archdiocese would now observe stricter protocols similar to the enhanced community quarantine.

While public religious activities are suspended for 2 weeks in the archdiocese, its online services will continue. "Many among them are tired and even discouraged by their heavy responsibilities. So we support their appeal for a time-out," he said. Pabillo, who recently contracted the illness, said current responses to COVID-19 don't seem to work as infections pile up.
