persistent well-being conditions have accounted for the larger part of deaths. A few
organizations around the world are working on a COVID-19 antibody at the present. It is
vague how long it will take until immunization is accessible to the public. Meanwhile, the
World Health Organization has empowered crucial precautionary measures to be taken
by those living in districts with infections (Elflein, 2020).

As recommended by the Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of

Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF-EID), Cebu City, Lapu-Lapu City, Mandaue City,
and the Cebu Province have been placed under the more relaxed Modified General
Community Quarantine (MGCQ). Parents who have Quarantine Pass can now bring

government’s anti-coronavirus errand constrain but still inquires the open to as it were
go out of their homes for critical needs. People have ‘no intentions to disobey’ new
resolutions from the Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging
Infectious Disease (IATF-MEID) that lifts the ban of minors below 21 years old and

According to the Department of Tourism of the Philippines, the Inter–Agency

Task Force (IATF) for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases Omnibus
Guidelines on the Implementation of Community Quarantine in the Philippines defines

standards that will be institutionalized in common or routine practices and remain even

updated health and safety protocols in the operations of accommodation establishment
under a New Normal Scenario.

The rules on the island and shoreline operations beneath the 'new normal' and
well-being and security conventions for these goals in zones beneath modified general
community quarantine (MGCQ). These rules and well-being conventions are contained
in Memorandum Circular No. 2020-007 which the Tourism Department issued. They
take impact quickly. (Yumol, 2020)
 The Philippine President upon the suggestion of the Inter-agency Task Force
(IATF) on the Management of Emerging Diseases within the Philippines has forced an
enhanced community to isolate within the island of Luzon until 30 April 2020. Strict
domestic isolate is forced amid this period. Philippine Congress has realigned the
national budget to reply to the COVID-19 widespread giving appropriations through

The exacting isolate measures utilized as a reaction to the COVID-19 pandemic

have driven the worldwide the travel industry to a total end, disturbing the occupations
of millions. The financial significance of sea shore the travel industry for some,
objections has driven numerous administrations to return traveler sea shores, when the
quantity of disease cases diminished. These issues incorporate danger recognition,
ecological contemplations straightforwardly identified with sea shores and COVID-19,
and the board procedures intended to restrict the danger of infection on the sea shore
(Zeilinski, 2020).

A study of Jingjing Li and Xiaohan Xhang which entitled Beach Pollution Effects
on Health and Productivity in California evaluated the current policy by empirically
examining the productivity loss, in the form of sick leave, which is caused by fecal-
contaminated water along the California coast under the CCR. The findings of the study
showed that Californians suffer productivity losses due to recreational beach water
pollution. This study also empirically examined the pollution-to-sickness graph that
Cabelli’s classic study theoretically proposed. The study assure that the existing water
quality thresholds are still reasonably safe and appropriate, despite the thresholds being
based on studies from the 1950s. The weakness of the CCR lies in its poor enforcement
or compliance. Better compliance, in terms of posting pollution advisories and
increasing public awareness regarding beach pollution effects on health, would lead to a
significant decrease in sick leaves and a corresponding increase in productivity. This
study advocates for stronger enforcement by displaying pollution advisories and better
public awareness of beach pollution effects on health (LiJ., &Zhang ,2019).

A study of Zrinka Zadel which entitled Beaches as a Factor in Achieving

Competitiveness of a Tourist Product-Case Study: Istrian County acknowledge the
importance and characteristics of beaches in the Istrian county, as well as the results of
an empirical research in which attitudes of tourists towards beaches and bathing

The study of Salman Majeed which entitled Health Resorts and Multi-Textured
Perceptions of International Health Tourists illuminates the likely perceptions of
prospective tourists about the attractions of health resorts, and endeavors to examine
the response of health tourists. The result of the study shows that tourists' expectations
and their behavioral intentions are generally associated indicators of perceived health
resort attractions. Sustainable tourism attractions also play a significant role in shaping
Thai travelers' behavioral responses, while medical facilities and risk levels are
considered significant in determining Indian and Chinese travelers' behaviors (Majeed et
al., 2018).

The County of Los Angeles Department of Public Health is embracing a staged

approach, supported by science and public health expertise, to take into consideration
for people to start to use public spaces again in manners that will limit the risk of
exposure to COVID-19. The County of Los Angeles has reopened beaches in limited
ways to allow residents increased outdoor recreation options. Staying physically active
is one of the best ways to keep your mind and body healthy. Going to public beaches
can be an important way to relieve stress, get some fresh air and vitamin D, stay active,
and safely connect with nature. But during this time we follow the public health beach
use requirements for us to use beaches in a way that keeps you and others healthy.

Some places in the United States has opened public beaches, but there were
considerations that CDC offers and steps for beach managers to take and help protect
their staff and beach visitors, both in the water and on land, and slow the spread of the
virus that causes COVID-19. Beach managers can determine, in collaboration with local
health officials, whether and how to implement these considerations, making
adjustments to meet the unique needs and circumstances of the local community.
Implementation should be guided by what is feasible, practical, and acceptable, and be
tailored to the needs of each community. These considerations are meant to
supplement — not replace — any local, state, territorial, federal, or tribal health and
safety laws, rules, or regulations with which beaches managers must comply.
