Duterte remains wary of allowing resumption of face-to-face classes


Pres. Rodrigo Roa Duterte remains wary of allowing the resumption of face-to-face classes until there is no vaccination rollout yet, said Sen. Christopher “Bong” Go on Monday.

“Mismong si Pangulong Duterte ay nag-aalangan pa at ayaw niya munang payagan ang face-to-face classes. Delikado pa po daw kasi ang panahon. Takot si Pangulo dahil ayon sa kanya, we are dealing with life here,” said Go in a statement.

Go added that it may be possible to resume face-to-face classes in the next regular opening of classes in July or when it’s safe.

“Pwede namang sa next regular opening ng school year sa July o kapag ligtas na,” said Go.

Last December, Duterte recalled his approval to conduct the pilot implementation of face-to-face classes scheduled in January this year.


No vaccination roll-out, no face-to-face classes


President Duterte, in December 2020, approved the conduct of the pilot implementation of face-to-face classes in January this year for public schools in areas identified as low risk for the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

But he recalled the order after more than a week, citing the threat of the faster-spreading coronavirus variant first discovered in the United Kingdom.

“I am appealing to our authorities: Vaccine rollout first before MGCQ. No vaccine, no face-to-face classes,” said Sen. Go.

“As we do our best to return to normalcy and revive the economy, let us first ensure that the lives of our people are protected. Throughout this pandemic, we have lost lives and we cannot afford to lose more,” the senator added.
