The COVID-19 pandemic has brought upon the world with provocations, almost all countries had to shut down their economies to halt the spread of the virus and our country is one of those countries who have taken strict measures by implementing the Enhanced Community Quarantine on March 15, 2020. It’s been a year and almost 7 months since we got stuck within our homes. The effects of COVID-19 can be felt all around us ‒ daily news clamoring with statistics, families worried about going ravenous because a lot of people lose their jobs and struggling to find a new one, citizens anxious to go back to what it used to be, and a country that is struggling to keep its economy buoyant.
