The guards refused me entry to the mall (senior) saying I need a pass from the captain. I went and asked the captain for a seniors pass and she refused me one, saying seniors not allowed out.

Basically no one is meant to be out now unless to buy food in Cebu city. CEBU CITY – Interior Secretary Eduardo Año on Tuesday ordered the suspension of 250,000 enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) passes issued by the city government to residents here. The suspension took effect at 10 p.m. on Tuesday but with no definite period as to its effectivity. Brig. Gen. Albert Ignatius Ferro, chief of the Police Regional Office 7 (Central Visayas), confirmed the suspension on the use of passes. “Yes. Quarantine passes issued by the Cebu City Hall will no longer be honored. The residents cannot go out of their barangay. Only those essential workers are allowed,” Ferro said in a radio interview. He said the decision to suspend quarantine passes was part of the strategy seen by the national Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF-EID) and its regional counterpart to be an effective approach to address the rising number of coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) infections here. Col. Cydric Earl Tamayo, Cebu City Police officer-in-charge, issued a memo addressed to all 11 station commanders in the city, instructing them to implement Año’s order suspending the quarantine passes. “In this regard, all station commanders are directed to identify a holding area, preferably a gymnasium, to hold those apprehended violators of the foregoing directives,” Tamayo’s memo read. He directed the station commanders “to strengthen the security in your respective Barangay Control Points and to deploy PNP (Philippine National Police) personnel as BCP supervisor." “Likewise, you are directed and encouraged to submit (a) report to those uncooperative barangays officials within your respective AORs (areas of responsibility),” Tamayo said. The chief implementer of the country's National Policy Against Covid-19, Secretary Carlito Galvez Jr., led other task force officials in coming to Cebu on Tuesday to announce their intensified approach in solving the rising number of Covid-19 cases in the city. At least 10 barangays in the city that have the most number of Covid-19 cases are considered placed under “hard lockdown” to pave the way for the strict implementation of quarantine protocols down to the village level. These barangays are Mambaling, Cebu City Jail area, Luz, Labangon, Suba, Kamputhaw, Tejero, Sambag 2, Duljo-Fatima, and Basak San Nicolas. Mayor Edgardo Labella has yet to release a statement on the order to suspend the quarantine passes he issued to the residents last https://www.pna.gov.ph/articles/1106822 And 48 HOUR-WINDOW TO GO HOME TO TOWNS A 48-hour notice is given to all residents of the Province who are currently in Cebu City, except locally stranded individuals (LSI), to go back to their respective hometowns. “This is serving notice to all mayors that we will go back to the restrictions on the entry of people coming in from Cebu City to the Province. We will go back to EO (Executive Order) 17 Section 8 which requires additional restrictions to our borders,” the governor announced on Tuesday, June 23. Under EO 17, Sec. 8, stricter border controls will be implemented in the four borders of the Province located in Talisay City in the south, Mandaue City and Consolacion in the north, Balamban town in the west, and Cordova town in Mactan Island. “We will give you the next 48 hours, after that you have to choose, ari raka Cebu City or you have to go back to your LGUs. Di na pwede COE (Certificate of Employment) or ID (identification card),” she added. The re-implementation of stricter border controls, the governor said, is only meant to protect the Province. “Like it or not, pagsugod nato pag-ease up, nag-increase pud ang cases. It is not alarming but we have to admit na nag-increase,” Garcia said. The areas, admittedly, are those which are contiguous to Cebu City like Talisay City and Minglanilla in the south which have recorded rising Covid-19 positive patients.
