How Can We Safely Celebrate Holiday Season?



The holiday season is just around the corner. Thus, through the Department Circular No. 2020-0355, “Reiteration of the Minimum Public Health Standards for COVID-19 Mitigation during the Holiday”, the Department of Health (DOH) has made recommendations for a safer holiday celebration. Below are the said recommendations as provided by the DOH.

How to Safely Celebrate the Holiday Season

  • Limit the number of people in social gatherings and activities, preferably people within the same household.
  • Avoid activities that require travel to areas with higher quarantine classification.
  • Keep activities as short as possible.
  • Always observe BIDA:
    • B – Bawal walang mask

  • Avoid touching high-touch surfaces and ensure cleanliness.

    This is great advise. For the people of Baguio this is probably possible since in Baguio only rich people live, but the rest of the Philippines a lot of poor people who lack the funds to practice this.
