Masses will continue to be aired online. "The leadership of Quiapo Church, led by Msgr. (Hernando) Coronel, due to the news of the sudden increase in Covid cases in Manila, we thought that temporarily, the Quiapo church will be closed," Badong said in a video message posted on social media. "This is the church's cooperation to prevent the spread of Covid infection and make way for the cleaning and disinfection of the church and its surroundings in preparation for this important day for our devotees," he added.
