As part of the National Capital Region, San Juan City will be under ECQ until May 15.
Under ECQ, stay-at-home rules are implemented, mass transportation is suspended, and non-essential businesses are closed to discourage people from going out except for food, banking, and medical runs. --KBK, GMA News
