LUCENA CITY — Due to Taal Volcano's continuous emission of volcanic sulfur dioxide (SO2) gas, in-person classes in public and private schools in the towns of Agoncillo and Talisay in Batangas province were suspended to ensure the safety of students and teachers. Agoncillo Mayor Cinderella Reyes issued the class suspension on Thursday after meeting with other local officials as the town continued to experience 'vog,' or volcanic smog. Vog consists of fine droplets containing acidic volcanic gas that could cause irritation to the eyes and throat and be harmful to people with respiratory illnesses.
