Ipinatatanggal ni Senate President Vicente Sotto III sa Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) ang requirement na 14-day quarantine sa mga papasok sa bansa na fully vaccinated na.
Saad ni Sotto, “Calling on IATF [or the Department of Health] to remove the 14-day quarantine on fully vaccinated persons entering the Philippines as long as health standards are followed.”
Dagdag pa ni Sotto, “Why do fully vaccinated people have to still do the two-week quarantine when traveling to the Philippines? It doesn’t make sense! It defeats the purpose of vaccinating so we can open the economy.”
Aniya pa, maraming investors na fully vaccinated na ang maaaring mag-alinlangan o hindi pumunta sa bansa dahil sa ipinatutupad na 14-day mandatory quarantine.
Saad pa ni Sotto, “Vaccinated investors won’t come because they have to quarantine or even Filipinos who are vaccinated are having second thoughts.”
Samantala, ayon naman sa chief epidemiologist ng DOH na si Dr. Alethea De Guzman, kailangan pa ring sumailalim sa quarantine ang mga papasok sa bansa kahit ang mga nabakunahan na.
Aniya, "Our action has always been very strong border control and that’s why part of our border control is ensuring that all arrivals, regardless of vaccination status, should be placed under quarantine.”
