Mayor Sara places two areas in Davao City under lockdown
Four communities in two barangays in Davao City's Poblacion District were placed under lockdown to prevent the spread of COVID-19, including Purok 3, 4, and 7 in Barangay 23-C, and Purok 8 in Barangay 21-C.
Mayor Sara Duterte later placed two more areas under lockdown: puroks in Barangay Leon Garcia in Agdao District and Daliao in Toril District.
The decision to lock down these densely populated areas was made due to confirmed positive cases.
Barangay Daliao has four positive patients, while Barangay Leon Garcia has one, as of Wednesday.
Approximately 56 individuals from Barangay 23-C were evacuated to quarantine centers.
Davao City's COVID-19 cases reached 97 with 16 deaths and 48 recoveries as of Tuesday afternoon.
Food rations will be distributed in the locked-down areas, and delivery services are prohibited.
