Ifugao sets ‘no vacs card, no entry’ policy

LAGAWE, Ifugao -- Heads of national and provincial offices, the Philippine National Police and security guards of the provincial government can now implement the “no vaccination card, no entry” policy in their areas of jurisdiction.
    Gov. Jerry Dalipog issued Executive Order No. 57 empowering said individuals and agencies to prohibit their employees from entering their offices unless they show proof of complete or first dose vaccination, otherwise they are directed to report back to work when the effectivity of the order ends.
    Dalipog earlier issued EO No. 55 Series of 2021 providing guidelines to the "no vaccine, no entry" policy in the province effective November 10 to December 10, 2021 to minimize Covid-19   cases.
    The policy applies to all “authorized persons outside residence” as well as to Ifugao residents.
    Police personnel manning the provincial border checkpoints started implementing the “no vaccination card, no entry” policy in the province last week.
    In EO 57, all security guards of the provincial local government unit shall check the vaccination card of all employees and visitors before they are allowed entry to the capitol compound and offices.  

However, all designated implementing officials and agencies are enjoined to implement the order with utmost consideration for order, safety and security of all persons involved. -- PIA Ifugao
