MMDA: All NCR mayors ‘unanimously’ approved unvaxxed restrictions

MANILA – The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) clarified on Wednesday that all 17 mayors in the National Capital Region (NCR) unanimously approved the resolution prohibiting unvaccinated individuals from leaving their homes during Alert Level 3 or higher.

The MMDA claimed in a statement that a Metro Manila Council (MMC) Secretariat staff “erroneously reported” to MMDA General Manager Romando Artes that Marikina City Mayor Marcy Teodoro did not sign the resolution.

“To clarify, Marikina Mayor Marcy Teodoro withheld to affix his signature on the resolution immediately as he wanted to study its context thoroughly,” the MMDA said.

It stated that Artes “will take full responsibility” for the error, indicating that the MMDA resolution that was unsigned by Teodoro did not come from the official platforms of the MMDA.

The MMC, comprised of the 17 NCR mayors and the MMDA, issued MMDA Resolution 22-01, series of 2022 on Monday, urging local government units in the NCR to issue ordinances prohibiting the unvaccinated from leaving their homes.

However, the unvaccinated and minors are exempted from these restrictions in certain scenarios, such as procuring essential goods and services, going to work, and for individual outdoor exercise.
