MANILA, Philippines — Sen. Nancy Binay on Monday questioned the pandemic task force's decision to suspend quarantine requirements for fully-vaccinated travelers, saying relaxed border controls will drive the increase of new variants.

 

This comes days after the government lifted its "green-yellow-red list" system, which is used to classify countries, territories and jurisdictions based on their COVID-19 risk levels. 

 

"It goes without saying that relaxing border control will definitely contribute to the rise in new variants and sub-variants — not to mention the probability of severe illnesses and deaths," Binay said in an emailed statement on Monday.
