Police Lt. Gen. Guillermo Lorenzo Eleazar, commander of the JTF COVID Shield, said irresponsible statements that go against the rules crafted by the National Task Force on COVID-19 and being enforced by the JTF COVID Shield are making it difficult for the government to effectively fight the spread of the coronavirus.
“Better yet, report them to us. In this way, we will be able to send a strong message that the rule of law especially in this time of pandemic must prevail,” he added. He explained his position that he does not believe that the wearing of face mask and face shield would prevent transmission of the coronavirus, despite scientific findings that contradict his position.Eleazar said the strict implementation of quarantine rules, that include the wearing of face masks, has been proven effective in containing the spread of the coronavirus, the recent proof was the case of Cebu City wherein the government intervention led to the decline of the virus transmission.
“Any opposing action or view will be considered an act of defiance and will be treated as a violation of the existing laws, and will be dealt with similar to the more than 348,000 that we have accosted so far since March 17,” he added.
