From the 17 municipalities, cases are now down to 10, with 58 recoveries, and eight deaths.
Lucena Mayor Roderick Alcala, though happy with the present zero active case situation, told the residents not to be complacent and continue to comply with the safety measures to totally eliminate the threat of Covid-19, especially to the most susceptible sectors such as the elderly, people with underlying medical conditions, pregnant women, and children.
He attributed the positive development to the discipline and cooperation of his constituents who showed absolute compliance with the guidelines set by the local authorities.
Alcala also expressed hope the zero active coronavirus case will be maintained until the threat of the dreaded disease is totally eradicated. (PNA)
