Best Posts in Thread: New Dumaguete Regulations Effective Monday 5/11

Actually, Negros Occidental is under quarantine until May 16.

Additionally, the governor is asking the Inter-Agency Task Force that the province be placed under general community quarantine (GCQ) until the end of the month.

He is concerned about the lack of local testing.

They suffer the same issue Negros Oriental suffers in that it sometimes takes a long time to get tests back from Cebu.

Here is a link to an article stating the facts:

These leaders look like a headless chicken running around.

If you want to make just regulations, one must define a goal first. What are the objectives, i wonder?

Do they want to control the virus untill there is a vaccine available? Well goodluck, that will be the first corona virus vaccine and the fastest developed working vaccine was created in 5 years.

Or do they want to eradicate the virus, well with all asymptomatic... Goodluck again.

Or is this a case of devide and conquer... Wel goodluck they did it..

What is the goal??

 

I agree. In light of the almost nonexistent number of cases here the solution should not be as draconian as Manila or Cebu with many more sick. I understand the need to be careful and applaud the quick actions that led to such a safe province but the restrictions, seemingly for the sake of restrictions, are a bit much.

 

If the province extends the ecq or gcq to the end of May, and my guess it will happen, I have to wonder if it would be because the province receives funds from the central government if they are on quarantine, and hence, have funds to play with or distribute to ..... Just saying as I see no rational reason to keep N.O. In lock down.
