The government’s task force in charge of policy-making amid the COVID-19 pandemic is set to present to President Duterte on Thursday its recommendation on whether to extend, lift or modify the various lockdown measures imposed nationwide to curtail the spread of the coronavirus.

Malacañang earlier said Metro Manila—where the bulk of COVID-19 infection was recorded— has “even” chances of being downgraded to the most lenient modified general community quarantine (MGCQ) or remaining under general community quarantine (GCQ)
