Zamboanga del Norte braces for GCQ lifting

Zamboanga del Norte is preparing for the lifting of General Community Quarantine on June 1 despite limited readiness.

Only three municipalities and one city in Zamboanga del Norte have isolation or quarantine centers that passed DOH preliminary assessments.

Health officials emphasize the importance of community cooperation to prevent the spread of COVID-19 as travel restrictions are lifted.

Local government units are required to impose rapid testing at airports and seaports, with those testing positive undergoing further tests and quarantine.
