“PSG will strictly implement preventive measures against the virus to ensure the safety of PRRD and the first family. Specifically, PSG will implement the no touch policy to the president. Personalities expected to get near the president especially during meetings and events will be thoroughly screened and tested for any illness related to ncov19,” sabi ni Durante.
Idinagdag ni Durante na sakop ng kautusan ang mga pulitiko, dignitaries at PSG personnel.
