+ INDIAN students of a medical school in Davao City complained of alleged prolonged isolation inside their dormitory.
The dormitory management, however, clarified that with the alarming number of recorded positive Covid-19 cases in the dorm, the City Health Office requested that the dormitory be under strict isolation protocols.
Last week, a group of Indian medical students staying at their school dormitory located along Juan Luna St., Davao City shared to SunStar Davao their experience of being isolated in their dorm rooms since November 21.
According to Willie, name withheld, they were allowed to go out and buy essential goods when the city was placed under modified general community quarantine (MGCQ). They were allowed to go out twice per week from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. However, when Davao City reverted to GCQ in November, he said they were asked to stay inside the compound.
