Vox Populi

The Inter Agency Task Force through the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) has just scrapped the need for any kind of testing for Covid infection for locally stranded individuals (LSIs) who are seeking to return home. Instead, LSIs need only to have a medical certificate and a travel authority from the Philippine National Police before they can be allowed to return to their respective hometowns.

In this regard, The Bohol Tribune, conducted an informal and random survey to get some opinions from the people. The question runs this way:

“MOSOGUT ka ba sa hukom sa mga kadagku-an sa atong lideres karon nga ilang gimandu-an nga MO DERECHO na ug pama-uli sa ilang mga lungsod (gikan sa ilang biyahe sa Manila or Cebu) kining mga daghang Locally Sanded Individuals (LSIs) ug nga DILI na kini sila MUAGI sa gitawag RAPID or Polymerase chain reaction  (PCR) Test? OO/DILI? (Are you in favor of the decision of our top leaders to instruct the LSIs to directly go home to their respective towns (from Manila) as soon as they arrive in their home province and not anymore subject themselves to either the RAPID or PCR Test? YES/NO)
