Vice President Leni Roberto Has Something To Say Over the Loosen Health Protocols

In the middle of the loosen rules from the government, Vice President Leni Robredo contradicted the choice of the Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF) to eliminate obligatory swab tests and isolate as movement prerequisites.

While she bolsters the normalization of movement prerequisites across nearby government units (LGUs), Robredo said the evacuation of required RT-PCR tests and the 14-day isolate on voyagers could trigger a spike in COVID-19 cases.

For her, in the event that it was recalled during the beginning of the pandemic, the cases were packed in Metro Manila, yet it spread everywhere on the country when the LSIs privately abandoned people which were permitted to get back to their regions.

Along with this, the government officials and staff on official business were excluded from mandatory testing and quarantine procedures, according to the IATF. On another issue, Robredo couldn’t help contradicting President Duterte in making Nov. 2, All Souls’ Day; Dec. 24, Christmas Eve; and Dec. 31, New Year’s Eve as exceptional working days rather than occasions.

She highlighted that it could have huge ramifications since he will pay the laborers more in the event that they work on a normal occasion. She said if the public authority needs to restore the economy it ought to need to allow laborers to go to their areas where they could spend the special times of year.

Along with this, there are numerous approaches to return the economy. Above all else, if the excursion is longer, the specialists will have the chance to return home and invest energy with their families – that, she thinks it could help the economy more.

In view of this, Duterte marked Proclamation No. 1107 recently, announcing the three recently pronounced uncommon occasions as exceptional working days as a feature of endeavors to prod financial recuperation.

That’s why for the nation to recuperate from the unfriendly effect of the COVID-19 pandemic, there is a need to empower financial efficiency by, among others, limiting work disturbance and remembering some uncommon occasions as exceptional working days all things being equal.
