Due to the rise of Covid-19, there are speculations that President Rodrigo Duterte will
declare a total lockdown in Metro Manila. Since Enhance Community Quarantine has
happened back in March 2020, the cases of Covid-19 is continuously rising up until
now.
The Enhance Community Quarantine has been declared, but there are some
community quarantine violators who tried to violate the rules that the government gave
them. Therefore, the military forces are trying their best to ensure the safety of the
people from this virus outbreak.
PNP chief Gamboa also announced that violators will have their day of justice for all
lawbreakers when we consider the right time to file criminal charges directly in court to
start their criminal prosecution agony (CNN Philippines, 2020). In addition to that the
PNP Chief said, "that many people are willfully disobey and violate government rules to
remain indoors". It was supposed to be the extension of ECQ but it would be hard for
the government to give supplies to people who are in need because it is limited.
Though, there isn't yet a decision of when the total lockdown is happening.
Despite that the total lockdown is not happening yet. We, the people should follow the
rules of the community quarantine to ensure the safety of ourselves and the people, to
give ease to the frontliners as they fight against Covid-19.
