President Duterte raises possibility of re-imposing stricter policies amid reported local cases of Delta variant. COVID19 COVID19Quarantine Related:

MANILA — The Philippine government eyes promoting "total health", Malacañang said on Monday, after the country detected its first local cases of the highly transmissible Delta COVID-19 variant.

"We are aiming to promote total health," Malacañang spokesman Harry Roque said, when asked if government would tighten protocols. "Ang ating stratehiya, hanggat maaari, we will have localized lockdowns, nang sa gayoon makapagpatuloy na makapaghanapbuhay ang ating mga kababayan," he said in a press briefing. Health Secretary Maria Rosario Vergeire noted that while 4 areas have been placed under the strictest quarantine level, Manila, where one patient died after being hospitalized, was told to only impose granular lockdowns because COVID-19 cases were "manageable.

Authorities have been scrambling to try and stop the Delta variant from spreading after it has helped trigger a surge in infections across Southeast Asia.
