Liquor ban, curfew hours lifted in Dagupan
DAGUPAN CITY, Philippines — The liquor ban and curfew hours in this city have been lifted as COVID-19 cases continue to drop.
Mayor Brian Lim issued an executive order lifting the ban on serving and public consumption of liquor and alcoholic beverages starting last Friday.
He reminded owners of business establishments to continue to enforce minimum public health standards, including restrictions on unvaccinated persons.
“The curfew imposed in the city of Dagupan as part of health measures to address the pandemic is lifted without prejudice to its reimposition should actual public health situation on a given period requires,” the EO also stated.
Lim said public markets would now be open every Thursday. Public markets were closed for disinfection every first and third Thursday of the month under a previous EO that Lim issued.
From 1,246 COVID cases in early January, infections in the city dropped to 134 last week.
