Presidential Spokesperson on the new testing protocols for passengers from areas with new COVID-19 variants

The Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) has resolved that incoming passengers shall be tested upon arrival and shall be quarantined until the result of the subsequent test administered on the fifth day is released.

Having said this, we assure everyone that the government would find ways and means to have enough testing facilities that would be used or tapped to strictly comply with this resolution.
