They still have an entry control point manned by barangay personnel. It will be interesting to see if they a. are wearing them and b. if they enforce it. The longer this goes on the more I hate to admit that the Asawa is right. She maintains that there is just something in the Filipino personality that once the get power they feel the need to use it and are very reluctantctanat to give it up They also have to sell their stocks of shields. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder who in the Philippine government is making a profit from face shields. I see the sense in wearing a face mask indoors or in close quarters outdoors, but requiring a face shield as well is stupid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDDavao II Posted December 16, 2020 Posted December 16, 2020 I ain't scared. In response to an alarming uptick in Covid-19 cases, Davao City has launched a TikTok Covid-19 dance contest. We'll all be better soon! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debatable how effective they are but I wouldn't say stupid - they do offer more protection than a face mask alone as they cover the eyes as well as the nose and mouth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum Support Tommy T. Posted December 17, 2020 Forum Support Posted December 17, 2020 (edited) Okay, okay... I forgot the nose and ear plugs... I will not mention other plugs that some members might.... And our favourite line from the latest Lone Ranger movie, "There is something very wrong with that horse!" We apply that to everything and everyone... love it! Edited December 17, 2020 by Tommy T. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OnMyWay Posted December 21, 2020 Author Posted December 21, 2020 On Friday, the SBMA chairwoman put this out: https://www.facebook.com/SBMAChAd/photos/a.1015129755292790/1939639062841850 I was out and about over the weekend in Olongapo and the Freeport. Generally speaking, in both places, people were wearing shields around retail establishments. In SBMA, the bus commuters already had to wear them and everyone in the busy freeport area was wearing them I did not notice any drivers wearing them I did not see any cyclists wearing them I did see several police not wearing them My 6 year old can go to the mall now so I dropped my wife and two older daughters off for some Christmas shopping. Then my 4 year old and I drove around looking for something to do. I wanted to take her for a walk, but it was super windy. Many times the shield would almost blow off. I can't see how it would be possible to wear that type of shield while cycling or motorcycling. In Olongapo, in the neighborhoods, hardly anyone wears a shield and many don't have masks. Kids all over there don't wear either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graham59 Posted December 21, 2020 Posted December 21, 2020 They should produce a 'De-luxe' model, incorporating an elastic strap at the back, to keep the thing on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
