Paranaque City Mayor Edwin Olivarez signed an executive order on Tuesday (Jan. 4) regulating the movement of unvaccinated individuals in the city while the National Capital Region (NCR) is under Alert Level 3.
Olivarez, in his order, stated that unvaccinated individuals must stay at home at all times and can only go out to buy essential goods.
The police and barangays were also ordered to reprimand or issue citation tickets to individuals found violating the order.
He warned individuals as well as business establishment owners against using fake COVID-19 vaccination cards and certificates.
The mayor also asked the Business Permit and Licensing Office (BPLO) to conduct monitoring on all business establishments in the city to make sure that only vaccinated individuals are allowed to work on site and must show proof of vaccination certificate from the Department of Health (DOH) and vaccination ID from the local government.
Olivarez said business establishments are also prohibited from catering or allowing the entry of unvaccinated individuals into their premises.
