THE entire Central Visayas region, including the highly urbanized cities of Cebu and Mandaue, as well as Zamboanga City in Mindanao have been added to the list of areas that will shift to general community quarantine (GCQ) on June 1.

Presidenti­al Spokespers­on Harry Roque announced Saturday, May 30, that the Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases has approved Resolution No. 41, which contains these revisions.

Under this resolution, these areas will be on GCQ from June 1 to 15, 2020:

* National Capital Region (Metro Manila)

* Cagayan Valley (Region 2) * Central Luzon (Region 3)

* Calabarzon (Region 4-A)

* Pangasinan

* Davao City

* Central Visayas (Region 7), including Cebu City and Mandaue City

* Zamboanga City

The rest of the country would be under modified general community quarantine (MGCQ).

“Lilinawin ko po, ang Cebu at ang Mandaue City po ay nasa GCQ na rin,” Roque said during the Laging Handa virtual briefing Saturday.

More than half of the respondent­s of the survey reported feeling uncertain about the economic forecast for the year ahead, up from a quarter a year ago.
