The use of face shields should be made voluntary except in the so-called 3Cs — closed spaces, crowded places, and close-contact settings — in areas under Alert Level 2, if it were up to Health Secretary Francisco Duque III.
The use of face shields should be made voluntary except in the so-called 3Cs — closed spaces, crowded places, and close-contact settings — in areas under Alert Level 2, if it were up to Health Secretary Francisco Duque.
[Translation: This is my personal opinion. I have to qualify. This can be made voluntary under certain circumstances in Alert Level 2 areas. But face shields must still be worn in 3Cs.] [Translation: We can make it mandatory under Alert Level 3 and 4. There has to be some kind of flexibility. The discussion should not be just whether we will use it or not. It's not that simple.]Duque's remarks follow Manila Mayor Isko Moreno's decision to drop the face shield policy, except in hospitals, effective Monday.
