SUBIC, Zambales – Three barangays here were placed under total lock down for the weekend – starting May 16 until May 18 – after two residents were found positive for Covid-19.
Mayor Jonathan Khonghun said Barangays San Isidro, Baraca-Camachili, and Ilwas will be closed for disinfection and contact tracing.
Last Friday, provincial health officer Dr. Noel Bueno confirmed four new patients tested positive for Covid-19, with two from Subic town.
Both patients are now confined at the President Ramon Magsaysay Memorial in Iba.
