+ December 29, 2020 LEADERS of business groups in Cebu are opposed to any new lockdown that the government might impose if a new variant of Sars-CoV-2, the virus that causes coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19), is detected in the country.
They were reacting to President Rodrigo Duterte’s statement on Saturday, Dec. 26, 2020, that another lockdown was possible.
“Our economy is still reviving from the first lockdown, which is felt by all sectors, be it big or small. A second lockdown would be disastrous,” Cebu Chamber of Commerce and Industry president Felix Taguiam told SunStar Cebu.
