Fully vaccinated air and sea travelers and those who have completed quarantine are still exempt from the RT-PCR test requirement.
SAMAR, Philippines – Ormoc City Mayor Richard Gomez signed on Wednesday, January 5, an executive order modifying guidelines for the city’s COVID-19 response.
Gomez also imposed an 11 pm to 3 am curfew after easing this in December 2021 to allow people to attend Christmas dawn masses. Unlike other provinces and key cities, Ormoc will still exempt from RT-PCR test requirements the fully vaccinated air and sea travelers who show proof of status. Persons with certificates of quarantine completion also do not have to take a test.
Ormoc eased its border restrictions on land travel, allowing those coming in via Tacloban airport to enter the city borders more swiftly.
