Liquor makers in the Philippines say their industry is 'in much unnecessary peril' due to lockdown-related bans enforced in some areas. COVID19PH

, Ilocos, and La Union, banned stores from selling liquor, as people converged on streets and failed to practice physical distancing.

"The state of intoxication...is caused only when alcohol consumption is considered abusive, that is, consumption of higher amount of alcohol than the normal.... Alcohol consumption can be taken in moderation by responsible individuals of the society who are accustomed to drinking alcohol," CARD said."While the alcoholic beverages in the Philippines are banned, elsewhere in the world, it is not, putting our industry in much unnecessary peril," CARD said.

Agree 💯 Don’t penalize the industry and responsible drinkers. Arrest instead troublemakers, whether drunken or not.

Government is losing a lot of money from sin tax.

Masaya nanaman mga kampay nyan 🍻

Beer 🍺 is considered as Beverage (potable quencher). Anything should be taken moderately. Thus, depends on the person.

Bawi na lang po kami once na malift na. Maglalashing kami ng 1 week.

Instead of using their money to buy food, they would spend it in buying liquor and then will ask again the government's help because they are starving. And blame the government because they are dying of hunger notoliftingofliquorban

NO Liquors for sale pls

Let us drink at home! 🍷

too bad. these times, it's not a necessity unless converted to ethyl alcohol.

Convert muna sa ethyl alcohol ang production, mabili yun ngayon

I understand. But in a medical point of view, when the liquor ban was initiated, there were no or few cases of drunk people [e.g lacerated wounds, hypogylcemia, contusions, etch] that i have handled at the ER. Thus lessening the exposure to possible covid patients.

Don't forget that getting drunk at home also leads sometimes to domestic violence

Daming local governments banning liquors and cigarettes. Tulong na sana eto sa economy, i know theyre doing this for positive outcome pero parang mas lamang ang positive kung i lift yung ban and it help the economy too.

Oh yes, for mental health 👍

Ang lagay ba naman si ano lang ang laging lasing hehe.

That’s one of the few things we have to get through this and stimulate the economy!

Ban cigarettes and hard liquor

Very true..if people get drunk they spend less time in the street and more time sleeping

Kaya di umuunlad ang bansa dahil sa mga ganitong pag iisip!

Good for the health of the nation..

This is only for the meantime, just a little sacrifice and cooperation otherwise it will take much longer the ECQ
