The Cebu City Hall will be closed from July 9 to 10, 2020 for disinfection after some of its employees contracted the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
City Administrator Floro Casas, Jr., said that Mayor Edgardo Labella ordered for a two-day closure in order to give way to the disinfection.“Idisinfect gyod ang tanang offices, sulod sa City Hall, gawas sa City Hall, sa mga common areas. Nagorder pud ta og physical rearrangement to promote social distancing,” said Casas.
Despite the measures put up since March 28, such as placing disinfection tents at the entrance and alcohol all around the City Hall, providing masks to the workers, and providing vitamins, there were still 70 employees and workers who have contracted the virus. With this, the city government has decided to disinfect the City Hall and other satellite offices, such as the Yutivo Building across the City Hall.
