MANILA, Philippines — Local government units should follow the Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases' policy allowing only fully-vaccinated foreign nationals into the country, the Department of Health said Friday.

 

The DOH issued the reminder after the Cebu provincial government issued an order allowing unvaccinated foreign travelers in beginning March 1.

 

In a briefing, Health Undersecretary Maria Rosario Vergeire said the provincial government had not consulted the agency about its policy. The DOH is chair of the task force.
