Darryl John Esguerra, “IATF setting parameters for possible lifting, extension or
expansion of Luzon quarantine” (2020)
Article Critique
In a bid to stop the spread of the coronavirus disease in the country, President
Rodrigo Duterte placed Luzon under enhanced community quarantine starting March
16, due to end on Easter Sunday, April 12. In the online news report “IATF setting
parameters for possible lifting, extension or expansion of Luzon quarantine,” Darryl
John Esguerra (2020) of Inquirer.net accentuates on the Inter-Agency Task Force’s
responsibility to craft the guidelines for the President’s decision on the Luzon-wide
lockdown enforcement. Notwithstanding a display of a couple journalistic errors that
may bring readers inconvenience, the article still takes a straightforward approach in
denoting that the government’s next call is yet to be determined.
A similar online news report from the CNN Philippines Staff (2020), “’Science’ to
determine if Luzon-wide quarantine will be lifted or expanded – CabSec,” flashes a well-
captured photograph from JL Javier, as shown below:
