Col. Cydric Earl Tamayo, Cebu police officer-in-charge, said the offices of the operations and city director, where 14 of those who tested positive for the virus were quarantined, were placed on lockdown.
Tamayo said the police officers would undergo swab test if they would manifest symptoms.
Tamayo gave assurance that there would be no disruption in the operations of the police offices on lockdown.
Meanwhile, the Department of Education (DepEd) office in Cebu City was closed yesterday after its two nurses tested positive for COVID-19.
Rhea Mar Angtud, DepEdCebu City division superintendent, said the office is closed to the public until the end of the month to pave the way for disinfection.
“Operations will continue, but employees will be working from home,” Angtud said.
