“Planuhing mabuti ang pagbisita; kung maari ay huwag ng sumabay at makipagsiksikan sa buhos ng mga tao sa mga sementeryo,” it added.
The DOH also reminded them to sanitize their hands after the visit and to continue wearing their masks when going home and using public transportation.
Face masks are still mandatory in public transportation, according to the president’s executive order on mask mandates.
