Police said Lt. Gen. Guillermo Eleazar, chief of the Joint Task Force COVID-Shield, is only allowed outside his home by authorized persons such as health workers, workers in authorized companies and avail of essential services or food supplies.
According to Gen. Eleazar, the checkpoints will still be in progress but the vehicles will be randomly inspected.
