PH: Two years into the Covid-19 pandemic
It’s been two years since the Covid-19 was declared as a pandemic. No country was spared from its ill effects—increasing number of cases, lockdowns, loss of lives and livelihood, among others. But now, some nations, including the Philippines, are starting to see some semblance of normalcy as the Covid-19 situation continues to improve. Metro Manila was first put under an enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) on March 15, 2020 and two days later—March 17, the Philippine government decided to implement the said strictest quarantine level in the entire island of Luzon in order to curb the rising number of infections then. “When the lockdown was enforced two years ago, I felt that it’s going to be difficult for most of the Filipinos because we were not used to that. It was scary at first knowing that our movements would be very limited,” said Renz Kenneth De Guzman, 26, a resident of Meycauayan in Bulacan. “During that time, the company that I was working for temporarily had to halt its operations. As a result, I was greatly affected and had to go back home,” he added. Under the ECQ, Filipinos were required to strictly stay at home. People would only be allowed to go out to access basic necessities such as buying food and medicine. Public transportation was suspended, businesses considered as non-essential were closed, and on-campus classes were suspended. Most work were also suspended while some operated in a skeletal workforce or have implemented a work-from-home arrangement. “As a healthcare worker, I was one of those people who got affected by the pandemic and lockdown that happened two years ago. The area of my life that really affected me so much was my job,” said Jennifer Orbigo, 26, a resident of Meycauyan in Bulacan. “It was much harder to continue working with a lot of restrictions, a lot of worries for myself and my family that I ended up having to stop working for a while,” she added.
