As the number of confirmed cases of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in the Philippines continues to grow, the number of events being cancelled or postponed is also quickly rising. much like how other countries such as South Korea and Japan have closed tourist destinations and cancelled big public events to prevent the spread of COVID-19. It’s good to know how to protect yourself from the virus, but it’s better to just avoid any place or event with big crowds. Which means it’s better that these events that would draw and gather a huge number of people are called off as early as possible. Check out this list of the events in the Philippines cancelled or postponed due to COVID-19.
