Malapit na! Duterte mulls modified quarantine in Metro Manila

By Prince Golez

President Rodrigo Duterte hinted at the possibility of placing Metro Manila under modified community quarantine.

This would allow workers in certain sectors to return to work, Duterte said during his public address late Monday.

“Malapit na, iyong iba naka-lockdown pa rin. Tayo, we might open partially — construction workers and things like that. You wait for the… Lalabas na ho, lalabas na ‘yung modified — modified ang ano natin quarantine,” according to him.

“So we will allow sectors of the society that is not — hindi talaga nagdidikit-dikitan. Ang problema nito kung — kaya modified muna eh. Kasi kung magsiksikan kayo diyan sa LRT na naman, wala ng katapusan ang problema natin. It will never end and it will bring us down and down,” he also said.

Thursday last week, Duterte extended the enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) in the National Capital Region, Central Luzon, Calabarzon, other “high-risk” provinces until May 15.

On one hand, areas outside ECQ will be placed under general community quarantine starting May 1.
