Antibiotics is not always the solution.

Antibiotics do not treat viral infections, like colds and flu 🤧. ALWAYS seek the advice of a qualified health care professional before taking antibiotics.

Pertussis, commonly known as whooping cough, spreads easily through respiratory droplets from infected individuals. While it can affect people of all ages, babies, young children, and pregnant women are particularly susceptible to severe symptoms.

Vaccination remains the most effective way to prevent pertussis. The pertussis vaccine is included in the DOH Expanded Program on Immunization (EPI) and it is freely provided for young children at local health care units. Additionally, vaccines against pertussis are also available for older children and adults.

Consult your doctor to learn how you can access these vaccines.

As we approach the summer season,🌞 it is imperative to take necessary precautions to combat the rising temperatures forecasted by PAGASA in the upcoming days.

The Department of Health Bicol Center for Health Development (DOH Bicol CHD) warns the public of the harmful health effects from El Niño.

According to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA), a strong and mature El Niño is expected to continue this month and will likely persist until May 2024. With this, there is an increased chance of above-average rainfall followed by extreme heat.

Hence, the DOH Bicol CHD advises the public of the following health measures to prevent the rise of infectious diseases during El Niño:

•𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘂𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗸𝘂𝗻𝗴𝘂𝗻𝘆𝗮 (Mosquito-borne diseases) - Practice the 5s: 1. Search and destroy mosquito-breeding sites, 2. Self-protection measures such as wearing long-sleeves and socks, 3. Seek early consultation, 4. Support fogging only in outbreaks, 5. Sustain hydration

•𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗲𝗿𝗮 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝘆𝗽𝗵𝗼𝗶𝗱 𝗳𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 (Food and Waterborne diseases) - wash hands before and after cooking and eating, and after using the toilet, ensure safe and clean preparation of food and water, store water in a tightly-sealed container, clean raw and fresh food thoroughly, ensure proper hygiene and cleanliness of surroundings.

•𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗹𝘆𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗳𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝗽𝗼𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 - avoid eating shellfish, alamang, and small fish sourced from red tide positive coastal waters.

𝗧𝗼 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗽𝗼𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴:

✅ Seek early consultation lalo na kung may sintomas ng dengue tulad ng mataas na lagnat at sakit ng kasu-kasuan, at pananakit ng likod ng mata
✅ Support fogging and spraying only in hotspot areas
