The Health Emergency Management Bureau is elated to present to you the Compendium of Risk Communication Messages for Public Health Emergency in the Philippines. It was conceived and developed during the COVID-19 Pandemic when there was a heightened concern about the need for information while misinformation and disinformation emerged. This compendium is informed by the World Health Organization’s Classification of Hazards included in the Strategic Toolkit for Assessing Risks issued in 2021 and serves as supplemental to the 2nd edition Key Health Messages for Emergencies and Disasters published in 2013.

The material highlights the importance of clear risk communication in public health emergencies. It emphasizes the need to balance informing and influencing the public to reduce fear and build disaster preparedness. It references existing resources and aims to improve communication for the policy and decision makers; program managers and field implementors; and other stakeholders which can ultimately create a more informed, engaged, and empowered population.

Moreover, this valuable material will serve as a critical guide for every Filipino on what to do before (preparedness), during (response), and after (rehabilitation and recovery) any public health emergency alongside providing clear instructions on first aid measures. It is designed to serve as a quick reference in packaging risk communication messages and information, education, and communication (IEC) materials for Disaster Risk Reduction and Management in Health (DRRM-H).

Mula sa Health Emergency Management Bureau, kami ay bumabati sa lahat ng mapagmahal na ilaw ng tahanan ng Happy Mother's Day! 💖💐

We recognize the hard work and commitment of all health workers. Thank you for everything that you do for a healthier Philippines!

Happy National Health Workers' Day! 👩‍⚕️👨‍⚕️

The Department of Health (DOH) is elated and sincerely thankful for the trust and confidence of our people in its performance for the first quarter of 2024.

In a noncommissioned nationwide survey conducted by OCTAResearch last March 11-14 (with 1,200 adult respondents and a margin of error of +/- 3%), most adult Filipinos highly trust five national government agencies. DOH is tied at the top 2 spot with the Department of Social Welfare and Development, coming in after the Department of Education. The same survey found that 80% of adult Filipinos are satisfied with the performance of the DOH.

"Ikinagagalak po ng buong DOH, kasama na ang hanay ng lahat ng mga health worker, na mataas ang tiwala at kumpiyansa ng bayan sa Kagawaran. Buong puso po ang aming pasasalamat," said Health Secretary Teodoro J. Herbosa.

"We are simply following the wise leadership of President Marcos, who has made health a top priority. Our work continues - tunay na sa administrasyong ito, Bawat Buhay Mahalaga!" added Secretary Herbosa.

Nakikiisa ang Health Emergency Management Bureau sa buong bansa sa paggunita ng ika-82 Araw ng Kagitingan na may temang "Pagpaparangal sa Kagitingan ng mga Beterano: Saligan para sa Nagkakaisang Pilipino".

Ipagdiwang natin ang tapang at sakripisyo ng ating mga beteranong Pilipino. Ang kanilang kabayanihan sana ay magbigay lakas at inspirasyon sa atin upang harapin ang buhay nang may katatagan! 🇵🇭

Ang batang bakunado, protektado!

Ang sakit na Pertussis ay lubhang nakakahawa. Ang isang maysakit ay maaaring makahawa ng hanggang sa 18 na iba pa, bata o matanda. Ang bakuna kontra Pertussis ay makakatulong upang mabawasan ang posibilidad ng malubhang mga komplikasyon mula sa Pertussis na nakakamatay lalo na sa mga sanggol.

Ang Pertussis o Whooping Cough ay nagdudulot ng matinis at ipit na paghinga matapos ang pag-ubo. Ang bata ay maaaring makaranas ng apnea o pagtigil sa paghinga, pagkahirap sa paghinga, at pagsusuka.

Agad na komunsulta sa pinakamalapit na health center kung nakakaranas ng malubhang pag-ubo, pangingitim o pag-kulay asul, o hirap sa paghinga!

Pabakunahan na ang mga batang 6 na linggo hanggang 23 buwang gulang para Chikiting Ligtas, dahil sa Bagong Pilipinas, Bawat Buhay Mahalaga!
