The Octa Research Group said that it is not yet recommending the use of face shields again amid the threat of the Omicron coronavirus variant.
OCTA Research fellow Dr. Guido David said that the wearing of a face shield is advisable if the country once again experiences a surge in coronavirus disease cases.
“Sa ngayon, hindi pa naman siguro kailangan iyan. Malayo pa naman tayo umabot sa medyo malalang surge sa ngayon kahit na magkaroon ng uptick kasi napakababa ng bilang ng kaso natin ,” he added.
