Malacañang, once again, reminds the public to practice physical distancing as gov't eases lockdown measures in several places. Palace spokesman Harry Roque says if COVID19 cases spike, they leave the gov't no choice but to revert the country back to ECQ.
MANILA — Novel coronavirus cases might spike and overstretch Philippine resources if mall-goers continue to defy safety rules, Malacañang warned Monday.
"Nand'yan pa rin ang virus. Habang wala pong bakuna, habang wala pang gamot, hindi pa rin po tayo ligtas sa COVID-19," Roque said in a press briefing."Kung magmamatigas ang marami sa atin, marami po talaga ang magkakaroon ng COVID-19 at tutulad po tayo sa ibang bansa kung saan tumaas ang kaso ng COVID-19 pagkatapos i-relax ang mga restrictions at ang mga tao'y hindi na sumusunod sa mga itinakdang health standards," he added.
