As repeatedly stated here : If we return to pre-pandemic behavior, it will restart the pandemic.
If we return to pre-pandemic behavior, it will restart the pandemic.
Let us use the tools we learned during the pandemic.
Transactions and activities that can be done digitally without loss should be done so, it’s a valuable tool we developed, let us continue using it (Bakit parang wala tayong natutunan).
Everyone po, please be aware of what the pandemic has taught us —
and continues to teach us :
Occupied rooms should be well-ventilated: Open windows, ensure CROSS -VENTILATION —
that means: On opposite sides of the room, there should be open windows / open doors.
For the safety of our own families, household members, and those we encounter — and for our own safety: Please let us wear masks in indoor airconditioned spaces (these spaces should also be well-ventilated with CROSS-VENTILATION) and in public vehicles (these should, as well, be well-ventilated with CROSS-VENTILATION). (Let us not carry the virus, nor spread it, nor bring it home)
