MANDAUE CITY, Cebu – The Mandaue City government plans to convert the old office of the Department of Government Services (DGS) located across the City Hospital into a COVID-19 isolation facility.

“With the increase in COVID-19 positive cases, and with the added concern over the Delta variant, the Mandaue City local government has to find ways to increase its capability to isolate positive individuals in order to help contain the spread of the virus,” the city government said in an advisory that was posted on the Facebook page of the city’s Public Information Office (PIO).
