“Napagkasunduan din ng National Task Force on COVID-19 na bukod po sa doon sa pagsusuot ng face shield sa pampublikong transportasyon, sa trabaho, ay dapat sinusuot na rin ang face shields sa mga nakasaradong commercial establishments gaya ng mga malls.”

[It was agreed by the National Task Force on COVID that aside from the wearing of face shield in public transportation and in the workplace, face shields must be worn in enclosed commercial establishments like malls.].
