“Local government units may impose a higher age limit for minors, depending on the COVID-19 situation in their respective jurisdictions,” he added.

President Rodrigo Duterte’s Cabinet previously approved easing quarantine age restrictions.

Under the previous policy of the Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases, those aged below 21 to above 60 years old are required to stay home with the exception of work and accessing necessities.
