Kapuso radio and TV newscaster Arnold Clavio announced via an Instagram post that there will be changes in the airing time of GMA’s morning show Unang Hirit until Friday, March 20. 

The show will only run for one hour and 45 minutes and will go off air starting on Monday. 

“Pero patuloy po kami magbibigay ng balita sa @dzbb594. Be safe mga ‘iGan. Ang lahat po ng ito ay bilang pag-iingat at nang hindi na kumalat pa ang virus. ? Ingat mga Kapuso,” said Clavio. 

Local media news channel CNN Philippines, on the other hand, announced on Wednesday that it will temporarily go off air after “a COVID-19 case was confirmed in the building (in Manila) where the company is located.”
