Sen. Bong Go advised to the public to follow implemented health guidelines to avoid the further spread of the virus despite the recent recommendation of the Inter-Agency Task Force of Emerging Infectious Diseases to make wearing face masks outdoors or in open spaces voluntary. 

"Inirekomenda po ng Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases na gawing boluntaryo na ang pagsusuot ng face masks kapag nasa labas," said Go. 

"Ayon po sa DOH ay ili-liberalize ang pagsusuot ng face mask sa labas para sa low-risk individuals at sa low risks settings. Binigyang-diin ng task force na ang implementasyon ay dapat gawin nang unti-unti para matiyak na protektado pa rin ang ating mga kababayan laban sa COVID-19," he cited. 

The senator then reiterated that face masks are still necessary especially when in close proximity with others, to help curb the further spread of the virus.

"Pinag-aaralan naman yan at unti-unti naman tayong mag-a-adjust. Kung well-ventilated naman po ang lugar, voluntary na lang po ang pagsuot ng face mask," Go said. 

"Kahit na payagan na tayong hindi magsuot ng masks habang nasa labas o sa mga ligtas na lugar, ugaliin pa rin nating maging responsable upang maproteksyunan ang sarili at ang ating komunidad laban sa anumang sakit o pangamba," he added.
