This was on our news also... It's a sad thing for the show as well...

I hope these events don't pull down people from joining the show...

Just a correction in the article: Manila =/= Camarines Sur... They're not filming in Manila, if they're filming there as well, they might have all been watched by plenty of bystanders, the homeless and the poor. While Camarines Sur is one of the most well known beaches of the country right now, next to Boracay Island... :D

Hm, I don't necessarily think it would kill it, but there would certainly be a lot of huge changes regarding casting and health restrictions, and would undoubtedly end older contestants appearing on the show altogether.

Yes, it's like a half day trip from Manila to Cam Sur!

I watched this last night. It's a very sad story.
