In the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, the national government has issued nationwide protocols. The local government units (LGUs) also came up with measures aside from those issued by the national government.
Most LGUs are also doing their part in lowering the cases of COVID-19 in the country. They prepared quarantine facilities, imposed curfew hours, and facilitated the return of OFWs and locally stranded individuals.
Also, several local governments made sure their citizens get aid from the government amid the COVID-19 crisis. They provide relief foods, cash incentives, and other means of helping the Filipino households.
Truths be told that there are complains against certain LGUs. Meanwhile, let us not forget that there are still those that do their part most especially their best in fighting the spread of COVID-19.
