MMDA Chairman Benhur Abalos explains the new granular lockdown scheme:

"This is more flexible. Kung saan lang may impeksyon, doon lang ilo-lockdown. We need a flexible policy, in the sense habang Kino-contain mo virus, nakakapagtrabaho yung iba." #COVID19Quarantine Image
Abalos says the new granular lockdown scheme will focus on 3 industries: crowded areas (churches, meeting halls); close contact areas (gyms, spas) and closed areas (dine in restaurants).

He said there will be 4 alert levels to determine operation of these industries.
Under this system, different brgys might have different alert levels depending on infection status to be determined by DOH.

Under Alert Level 1, all industries will be open, Alert Level 2 (50% capacity), Alert Level 3 (30% capacity, & Alert Level 4 (closed) | via @JervisManahan

A covid age travel story. I’ll be sharing my experience of traveling in a repatriation flight from Dublin Bangalore. Flight date 26 May ‘20. Can’t wait to be home with mom and play board games n cards ❤️ #familytime #COVID #indiainireland #VandeBharat #home #Flythenewnormal Image
Landed in Delhi. Waited for ~3 hours in the flight afterwhich we were told there is another aircraft been arranged due to a tech fault. Waiting since ~6 hours now. It’s very tough to wear the shield and the mask all thru out. Very suffocating. No ventilation / AC in the airport
After ~9 hours of wait, we were asked to board another AI ✈️ at the delhi airport. Walking from one gate to another with shields and masks amidst high security felt abnormal. There was tension in the air. Image
