The Inter-Agency Task Force on Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF) may soon allow salons and barbershops to reopen in areas under general community quarantine (GCQ).
A system of accreditation will be implemented for these establishments so they can resume operations, according to Palace Spokesman Harry Roque.
“Nagkaroon ng demonstration ang mga malalaking barbero kung paano mapag-iingatan yung [kanilang] pagbukas at na-impress naman [sina](National Task Force ) Chief Implementer General (Carlito) Galvez (Jr.) at (Trade) Secretary (Ramon) Lopez,” Roque said during his interview with Unang Hirit Friday.
“Sa darating na araw, magkakaroon naman ng pagpupulong para sa barbero. Alam niyo, siguro mga 25 hours na ang nagugol ng IATF dito sa usaping barbero at sa totoo lang bumalentong na ang IATF diyan. Pumayag, binawi,” he said.
“Sa tingin ko meron ng nabubuong consensus na baka payagan na. Pero hindi pa ngayon pinapayagan. Baka papayagan na pero magkakaroon ng sistema ng accreditation. Yung mga barbero lamang na merong pamamaraan para makapag-ingat sa COVID ang puwedeng magbukas. Pero wala pang ganyang desisyon. Inaasahan lang natin sa lalong mabilis na panahon.”
Yesterday, President Rodrigo Duterte approved the recommendation of the IATF to place Metro Manila under GCQ starting June 1 that will allow more non-essential establishments to operate and help economies recover from the coronavirus crisis.
