Hindi nakasuot ng mask sa Cebu huhulihin – Año

SINABI ni Interior Secretary Eduardo Año na hindi kikilalanin ang kautusan ni Cebu Governor Gwendolyn Garcia na pinapayagan na ang hindi pagsusuot ng mask sa Cebu sa outdoor setting.

Kasabay nito ay nagbanta rin si Año na huhulihin ang sinoman na hindi nakasuot ng mask sa Cebu kahit nasa labas ng bahay.

“The President has directed that we will continue to wear face masks except under circumstances defined by the Inter-Agency Task Force on Emerging Infectious Diseases. Current IATF protocols allow only for specific instances when masks can be taken off, such as when eating or during certain well-ventilated sports and activities,” sabi ni Año.

“This Department does not recognize the Executive Order issued by Cebu Governor Gwen Garcia because we have the IATF Guidelines approved by the President. The Philippine National Police will continue to confront, apprehend, and arrest, if necessary, all violators of IATF Guidelines and MPHS in the Province of Cebu,” ayon kay Año.

Nauna nang pumalag ang Department of Health (DoH) at iba pang eksperto sa naging desisyon ni Garcia na payagan na ang hindi pagsusuot ng mask lalo na kung nasa outdoor.
