Gov’t reaches out to barangays through Covid-19 modules

By Prince Golez

The Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) on Emerging Infectious Diseases plans to distribute modules detailing Covid-19 protocols and other public health measures to different barangays across the country, Cabinet Secretary Karlo Nograles said.

In a radio interview Sunday, Nograles said this initiative will ensure strict compliance with the established protocols in barangays.

“Yung next step natin sa IATF is yung talaga drill down na tayo sa mga barangay, na purok-purok na talaga ang bantayan natin dito. Meron tayong ginagawang pakikipag-ugnayan sa mga barangay,” the Palace executive told Super Radyo DZBB.

“May ginagawa na tayong mga modules at talagang makikipag-ugnayan na talaga kami sa mga barangay down to hanggang sa mga purok-purok nila para yung modules natin dun sa prevention, detection… Lahat ng mga kailangan na paghihigpit at pagcocomply sa lahat ng protocols eh hanggang purok level natin ibababa,” he also said.

Earlier, President Rodrigo Duterte warned local government officials, including barangay captains, of facing administrative and criminal charges should they fail to enforce quarantine measures in their areas of jurisdiction.

As of May 15, the Philippines recorded a total of 56,709 active Covid-19 cases, with 1,062,427 recoveries and 19,051 casualties.
