PH ISINAMA ANG FRANCE SA ‘RED LIST’

NAKATAKDANG higpitan ng gobyerno ang restrictions sa mga biyahero na manggagaling sa France, na kasama sa “red list” countries.

Inanunsiyo ng Malacañang ang desisyon ng Inter-Agency Task Force ngayong araw, na epektibo mula Disyembre 10 hanggang 15.

“Passengers who have been to France within 14 days immediately preceding arrival in the Philippines and who arrive on or after 12:01AM of December 10, 2021, but before 12:01A.M. of December 13, 2021, shall be required to undergo facility-based quarantine for 14 days with an RT-PCR test on the 7th day, with day one being the date of arrival. Notwithstanding a negative RT-PCR result, the completion of the 14-day quarantine is required,” acting presidential spokesperson at Cabinet Secretary Karlo Nograles

“Beginning 12:01A.M. of December 13, 2021 until the end of December 15, 2021, entry in any port of the Philippines shall not be allowed for passengers coming from or who have been to France within the last 14 days prior to arrival in the Philippines, regardless of vaccination status,” dagdag na pahayag nito.

Tanging ang mga Filipino na magbabalik- bansa via government-initiated o non-government-initiated repatriation, at Bayanihan Flights ang maaaring payagang makapasok, “subject to existing testing and quarantine protocols for Red List countries/territories/jurisdictions.”

“As with all international inbound travel, the testing and quarantine protocols for minors shall follow the testing and quarantine protocols of the parent/guardian traveling with them, regardless of the minor’s vaccination status. This notwithstanding, children 3 years old and below, regardless of country of origin, shall be exempt from the requirement of presenting a negative RT-PCR test result before boarding the flight, unless symptomatic.”

Sa kabila nito. ang mga pasahero na dumating bago ang Disyembre 10, 2021 at kasalukuyang sumasailalim sa quarantine ay kailangan na kompletuhin ang testing at quarantine protocols simula ng kanilang pagdating.

“All passengers, whether Filipinos or foreigners, merely transiting through France shall not be deemed as having come from or having been to said country if they stayed in the airport the whole time and were not cleared for entry into such country by its immigration authorities. Upon arrival in the Philippines, they shall comply with the applicable testing and quarantine protocols for passengers who have not been to any Red List country/territory/jurisdiction,” pahayag ni Nograles.
