Inoobliga na ng Inter-Agency Task Force on Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF) ang mga positibo sa COVID-19 na asymptomatic at mild ang sintomas na ma-quarantine sa mga pasilidad na aprubado ng gobyerno.
Sinabi ni Presidential Spokesman Harry Roque, nakapaloob ito sa IATF Resolution No. 74 kung saan nakasaad na mandatoy sa asymptomatic at mild cases ang facility-vase quarantine maliban sa mga pasyenteng itinuturing vulnerable o may comorbidities o maaaring komplikasyon.
Ayon kay Sec. Roque, may exception din kung ang mga Ligtas COVID-19 Centers sa isang rehiyon ay okupado na at walang sapat na isolation facilities ang local government unit (LGU).
“We likewise notify the public that facility-based isolation shall be required for confirmed asymptomatic and mild COVID-19 cases, except where, as confirmed by the local health officer, the patient is considered vulnerable or having comorbidities and that his/her home meets the conditions specified in the Department of Health and the Department of the Interior and Local Government Joint Administrative Order 2020-0001,” ani Sec. Roque.
