Mt Province suspends work in PLGU offices; Sagada areas restricted

BONTOC, Mountain Province – Gov. Bonifacio Lacwasan Jr. ordered extension of  suspension of work in provincial government offices   due to rising Covid-19 cases and detection of the UK variant in this capital town.
    In his memorandum order 05 s. 2021, Lacwasan, extended work suspension, except for frontline and vital offices starting  Jan. 25 until Jan. 29.
    The governor suspended work in the PLGU two weeks ago following surge of Covid-19 cases in the province with most cases from Bontoc.
    The central barangays of    Samoki,   Bontoc Ili, Caluttit and Poblacion were placed under enhanced community quarantine lockdown until Jan. 31.
    Lacwasan urged everyone to strictly adhere to minimum health protocols which he said “is still the best and cost effective measure against the corona virus and its variants.  
    Meanwhile, work at the Bauko town LGU resumed last week but only employees of the LGU and   national line agencies operating in Bauko were allowed to enter the municipal compound.
    This work arrangement was until Jan. 29, due to increasing number of Covid-19 cases in the municipality.
Employees who were exhibiting Covid-like symptoms or co-morbidities were instructed not to report until such time their condition improves.  
    In order not to totally disrupt public services, Mayor Abraham Akilit said clients may call the office mobile numbers.
    Akilit suspended work on Jan. 21 and 22, after several LGU employees tested positive for Covid-19.
