The Philippine National Police (PNP) is set to recalibrate its action plan in response to the downgrading of the National Capital Region (NCR) and the other seven areas to COVID Alert Level 2 starting February 1 until February 15.
Under this alert level, children are allowed to go outdoors.
“We are appealing again to the parents or guardians to take the responsibility of monitoring their minor companion since there isn’t any age restriction for those who wish to go outdoors,” PNP Chief Police General Dionardo Carlos said.
Carlos also asked the adults if there is no important purpose of bringing the minors outside, then it is better to keep them at home to avoid being caught up in crowded places.
Nevertheless, the PNP assures that deployment of police personnel in public places or areas of concern is already being mapped out.
“We advise our unit commanders to verify the adjustments in policies that the LGUs may implement in their locality,” Carlos said. (PNP) -rir
