Palace extends ECQ in NCR, 4 prov. for 1 week

Presidential spokesman Harry Roque announces the extension of the Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ) in the National Capital Region (NCR) and the areas of Laguna, Bulacan, Cavite and Rizal.

In a statement, Roque on Saturday, April 3, 2021, said that the strictest level of community quarantine will remain in the said areas for at least one week more.

The ECQ on these areas is supposed to end today,  Sunday, April 4, 2021. Yet, it’s extension is imperative as the Department of Health, some mayors of the affected localities, and the independent OCTA Research Group endorsed the such extension of the ECQ to contain the spike in Coronavirus disease (Covid) cases. 

The so-called NCR plus bubble was placed under ECQ to control the rising number of cases not seen before.

Roque said that the extension of the ECQ was approved by President Duterte.
