Iloilo province extends ECQ until May 15
Iloilo Governor Arthur Defensor Jr. has approved the extension of the enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) in the province until May 15.
Defensor confirmed this through Executive Order (EO) 110, which is more comprehensive than previous issuances.
The province initially implemented ECQ on March 20, with previous extensions pushing the deadline to April 30.
While there will be no major changes, Defensor plans to incorporate measures to boost the agriculture sector's production and allow farmworkers to mobilize and earn income.
A strict home quarantine will still be imposed, and those assigned to access basic needs must secure an ECQ pass signed by the municipal mayor.
