SEN. Christopher Lawrence 'Bong' Go on Saturday, suggested assigning health safety officers in schools in view of the resumption of physical classes to help safeguard the welfare of students, teachers and school personnel, and to curb the rising number of Covid-19 cases in the country.

Go, chairman of the Senate Committee on Health and Demography, said that while he agrees with the resumption of face-to-face classes in select areas, the government must prioritize the health and safety of the students.
