Robredo backs Metro Manila's GCQ during Christmas
Vice President Leni Robredo on Sunday supported the recommendation of Metro Manila mayors to maintain a general community quarantine (GCQ) during the Christmas season.
Robredo emphasized that local officials are best suited to understand the ground situation and should be listened to, as a one-size-fits-all approach is not feasible.
On Thursday, National Task Force Against COVID-19 chief Carlito Galvez Jr. stated that Metro Manila mayors prefer remaining under GCQ this holiday season due to recent increases in virus cases and concerns about potential delays in test results from typhoons.
