The Navotas City government has passed three ordinances imposing stricter penalties on residents and jeepney drivers violating various health protocols amid the rising number of new coronavirus disease (COVID-19) cases in the country.

Fines and penalties for those violating the curfew hours and for not wearing face masks and face shields properly, as well as for drivers who do not limit their passengers to 50 percent, among others, have been amended under several new measures.

The previous penalty for the said offenders was mandatory free COVID-19 swab testing. But the local government said it upgraded the penalty following reports that several violators tended to give false information to apprehending authorities which had “prevent[ed] them from being line-listed” for testing.

The testing must be done within a week from the time of their apprehension, according to the local government. “If 14 days had passed, they shall undergo another free, mandatory swab testing,” the local government said.
