 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

During the outbreak emergence, one of the most urgent public health tasks is to prevent
the spread of the virus from an epidemic source region to other regions within a country
or globally. It is because a person who was infected can travel to another region and
spread the virus, COVID-19 continued to pose a severe threat to other regions through
transportation services. The researcher utilized a case study design. A case study research
design usually involves qualitative methods, but quantitative methods are sometimes also
used. Case studies are good for describing, comparing, evaluating, and, understanding
different aspects of a research problem. This study was conducted at Tangub City Police
Station. The informants of this study were the two police personnel of Tangub City
Police Station. The researchers used a researcher-created questionnaire to collect all of
the essential data from the respondents on the problems during the implementation of
Quarantine checkpoints. Based on the informant’s response, it can be concluded that
during the implementation of Quarantine checkpoints, the violations that was were
committed is the minimum health protocols. Aside from minimum health protocol
violations, one of the common problems encountered by the PNP Personnel in Tangub
City is disobedience. Therefore, proper education and giving of information is a must so
that the people will not be confused.
Keywords: problems encountered, Quarantine checkpoints, minimum health protocols,
covid-19, epidemic, traveler
