IATF OKs fireworks display of one mall for Chinese New Year

2021/2/9 英字

Malacanang said on Monday that the people can celebrate Chinese New Year, which is on February 12, but they have to ensure health protocols are being followed.

In a press briefing, Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque said the Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases has approved the request of a mall along Manila Bay to hold a fireworks display during the Chinese New Year.

"So, our call, we can celebrate without getting sick, especially now that the vaccine is coming," he said.

While recent COVID-19 cases were either mild or asymptomatic, Roque, who is also the spokesman of the IATF, said there was a slight increase in the number of deaths.

"So, we hope that we take care of our lives and celebrate even beyond the Chinese New Year," he said.
