According to Police Brigadier General Albert Ignatius Ferro, regional director of the Police Regional Office in Central Visayas , the police will not be complacent with the lifting of the lockdown in the densely populated area, considering that Cebu City is still under enhanced community quarantine .
“Since we are not moving to GCQ, the same protocols will be applied to Barangay Luz, especially in sitio Zapatera, because since it has become the epicenter of [COVID-19 cases in] Cebu City earlier,” said Ferro. “Gradual lessening of restrictions [soon], but for now we have to secure that place. Once the local government has come up with credible data with the numbers of the residents tested to be negative, maybe we can relax the restrictions,” he added.Meanwhile, stricter security measures are also being implemented in Sitio Alaska, Barangay Mambaling, which is considered one of the hot spots of COVID-19 cases in Cebu City with around 600 cases.
