Abangers muna: No decision yet on new quarantine classifications, says Palace

By Prince Golez

The Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) for the Emerging Infectious Diseases has yet to decide the new quarantine classification of Metro Manila and other areas, Malacañang said.

“Wala pa pong kahit anong consensus. Bakit? Eh wala pa po kaming nakukuhang report as far as data is concerned,” Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque said in a virtual presser Tuesday.

Roque, however, said the government continues to work towards the goal of achieving “total health” amid Covid-19 pandemic.

“I will say that our objective is to achieve total health. Hindi naman po pupuwedeng mapapababa ang numero ang mga COVID, samantalang napakataas naman po ang naghihirap dahil sa kagutuman. So, I think we are one in IATF to find that delicate balance of total health, pero sa ngayon po kinakailangan makita ang datos,” he added.

Metro Manila and Laguna have been placed under the most restrictive enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) until August 20.

Bataan, on the other hand, is under ECQ until August 22.
