PRO-7 sends Cebu contact tracers to Iloilo, Bacolod

The Police Regional Office-7 (PRO-7) will send a team of trainers to Iloilo and Bacolod to share Cebu's successful contact-tracing techniques.

Cebu City health department official Dr. Catherine Echevarre and police captain Jefferson Sinfuego, who oversaw contact tracing in Cebu, will train front-liners in Iloilo and Bacolod.

The goal is to establish an Emergency Operations Center (EOC) similar to the one in Cebu to help contain the rising number of COVID-19 cases in these areas.
