AS far as the Commission on Elections (Comelec) is concerned, it is duty bound to ensure that all registered voters can exercise their right of suffrage, including those possibly infected with Covid-19.

Commissioner George Erwin Garcia reiterated on Saturday that the only exception are those voters and members of their families who are being monitored by their respective barangay (village) and are in isolation in their homes in compliance with the health protocols of the Department of Health and the Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF) and as prescribed by Republic Act (RA) 11332.
