Palace to LGUs: Follow travel rules for fully vaccinated people

By Prince Golez

MalacaƱang urged local government units (LGUs) to heed the new policy allowing interzonal travel for fully vaccinated persons even without a negative swab test result.

ā€œWe ask everyone to comply with IATF (Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases) resolutions as of now,ā€ Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque said in a televised briefing Tuesday.

He was reacting to reports that some LGUs expressed concern about allowing the entry of fully vaccinated leisure travelers without a swab test.

Roque, however, assured that the governmentā€™s Covid-19 task force will listen to the appeals of local governments.

ā€œWhen the IATF issued po mga resolutions, it acts for and in behalf of the President pero hindi naman po bingi ang ating IATF sa mga reklamo at mga suhestiyon ng lokal na pamahalaan, pag-uusapan din po iyan sa IATF,ā€ according to him.

Under IATF Resolution 124-B, fully vaccinated individuals should only present their vaccination card upon arrival at the LGU of destination.
