Disobeying quarantine orders can attract punishments and in some cases, it can be your life. Yes, breaking quarantine rules in the Philippines can get you a shot of a bullet. The idea is clear either stay inside your home or go up (just kidding).
Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte has given this order to the police. The President warned the citizens before making the ‘shoot them dead’ statement. “It is getting worse. So once again I’m telling you the seriousness of the problem and that you must listen“, said Duterte in a televised press address on Wednesday.
“My orders to the police and military … if there is trouble and there’s an occasion that they fight back and your lives are in danger, shoot them dead. Is that understood? Dead. Instead of causing trouble, I will bury you“, he said.
The statement of President comes at a time when outrage among the medical community about social stigma and instances of hospital workers suffering physical abuse and discrimination has been surfaced. The President asked to stop these practices immediately in his address. The Philippines has recorded 96 coronavirus deaths and 2,311 confirmed cases. Earlier a similar kind ow warning was given by Telangana CM.
