May pandemya pa! Kids barred from visiting Manila Bay dolomite beach: Palace

By Prince Golez

Malacañang on Monday reminded the public that children can only go out for essential errands.

Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque made the statement after some 4,000 visitors flocked to Manila Bay’s dolomite beach over the weekend amid the continuing Covid-19 pandemic.

“Unang una, ang mga bata, talagang for essentials lang po na dapat lumalabas sa kanilang mga tahanan. So, hindi pa po pupuwede talagang mag pasyal-pasyal ang mga bata,” Roque clarified during his televised briefing.

“Nananawagan po kami sa ating mga kababayan, pandemya pa po. Bagamat bumababa ang mga kaso natin eh nandiyan pa po si Covid-19, so wag po tayong magpabaya,” he also said.

Meanwhile, Roque urged the Philippine National Police to enforce the social distancing protocols at the dolomite beach.

“Nananawagan po kami sa kapulisan diyan sa Manila. Kinakailangan ipatupad natin ang social distancing. Talagang ang dolomite for the enjoyment of everyone, pero ‘wag naman maging dahilan yan para magkaroon tayo ng superspreader event,” he said.
