Enhanced
Community Quarantine (ECQ), General Community Quarantine (GCQ), Modified
Enhanced Community Quarantine (MECQ) no matter what is being implemented in the
particular place is still not a cure for the novel coronavirus 2019 disease or
COVID-19.
The country is
adapting to the “new normal” the Department of Health (DOH) made it clear to
everybody that any sharp and sudden increase in new COVID-19 cases in the
coming days may lead the national government to reimpose the strict quarantine
rules that this weekend were eased in several local government units in the
country.
DOH
Spokesperson Maria Rosario Vergeire in an
exclusive interview with CNN Philippines was showed photos showing the number
of people who flocked to malls in Metro Manila on Saturday, after the city
shifted to modified enhanced community quarantine status.

"This is actually a
shifting or transitioning para mapababa at mapababa ang community
quarantine. Pero kung makikita po natin ito tapos biglang mag-surge ang cases natin,
malaki po ang posibilidad na...we need to do another total lockdown if cases
will increase," she said.
"Sana nga po ang ating
mga kababayan ay naiisip nila na kung kinakailangan at saka magpunta diyan. Nagpalabas
po ang pamantayan ang Department of Trade and Industry para sa mga malls para
sundin po nila ito para hindi magdagsa ang mga tao. So we are expecting
the mall operators and the local government units at that should enforce these
minimum health standards. para po hindi nagkakaroon ng ganyang crowd sa
loob ng isang mall," she said.
Usec. Vergeire reminded
people that regardless of the classification an area falls into, the whole
country is still under quarantine.
"Ang sinasabi at
kailangan natin laging tandaan ay naka-community quarantine pa tayong
lahat. Kahit na sabihin natin na modified ito, na general ito,
lahat po ng areas dito sa ating bansa still on community
quarantine," she said.
