Free bus rides for frontliners from VP
The Office of the Vice President (OVP) has relaunched its free shuttle service for health workers and other frontliners in Metro Manila.
The initiative aims to provide transportation during the modified enhanced community quarantine (MECQ) period, which restricts mass transportation.
The shuttle service, a project of the OVP and Angat Buhay partners, offers eight routes connecting various hospitals across the metro area.
Passengers are required to present their hospital ID and undergo health protocols such as temperature checks and physical distancing.
Vice President Leni Robredo stated that the service aims to make 'pagbabayanihan' (helping each other) possible again.
