❤️Undetectable = Untransmissible

Kapag ang isang taong may HIV ay may undetectable viral load, hindi na niya maipapasa ang virus sa kanyang sexual partner.

Nagiging undetectable ang virus kapag nasusunod at tuluy-tuloy ang tamang pag-inom ng antiretroviral drug o ARV.

Kumunsulta sa iyong healthcare provider para karagdagang impormasyon tungkol sa ARV.

Higit na mapoproteksyunan ang mga taong at risk sa HIV ang kanilang sexual health kung sila ay magpapa-test kada tatlong buwan.

Magagabayan rin sila ng mga healthcare providers sa preventive o antiretroviral treatment kung alam nila ang kanilang HIV status.

Ang pagpapa-test at pagpapagamot ng HIV ay libre sa mga HIV treatment hubs.

Join us this World AIDS Day as we rally together, hand in hand, to empower communities and fight against HIV/AIDS.

Let's lead the change, support one another, and build a stronger future where every life matters.

Antibiotics do not prevent or treat viral infections like the flu.

They work against bacteria and bacterial co-infections (say, you have the flu and it worsens to pneumonia).

Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) is a threat to global health, food safety & security and sustainable development.

Do your part.
Prevent the spread of AMR.

The Department of Health (DOH) joins the global observance of the World Antimicrobial Resistance Awareness Week (WAAW) from November 18-24, 2023, which we locally call as Philippine AMR Awareness Week or PAAW. The local theme for this year’s PAAW celebration is “Sama samang magtulungan upang antimicrobial resistance ay mapigilan.”

It’s World AMR Awareness Week!
The danger is real. Some of our best medicines could stop working due to Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR), which contributes to nearly 5 million deaths annually.

Let’s work together to prevent the spread.

Imagine your medicine stops working? 💊
Stressful, isn’t it?

This can happen when we misuse antimicrobial medicines. Disease-causing bacteria then become resistant to drugs and the drugs stop working.

Vaccines protect against more than 20 diseases:
Cervical cancer
Cholera
Diphtheria
Ebola
Hepatitis B
Influenza
Japanese encephalitis
Measles
Meningitis
Mumps
Pertussis
Pneumonia
Polio
Rabies
Rotavirus
Rubella
Tetanus
Typhoid
Varicella
Yellow fever
COVID-19

Talk to your health worker to ensure vaccination is up to date for you and your family

My personal take on this case:

I am not comfortable when faced with a patient with a demanding lawyer parent/grandparents/aunts/uncles.

I think I am TIPTOEING ON THIN ICE.

Unless we have established friendship e.g. my lawyer friends with sons and daughters, then we are good.

Whenever I face a new patient-lawyer, at the back of my mind I'd rather have them seen by another doctor or at the emergency room. I have sworn the HIPPOCRATIC OATH that I will take care of patients whatever is their background but in the case of lawyers and their families, there is apprehension and hesitancy. This is also true with my doctor friends with lawyer patients/families. We have the same sentiments with lawyers and their families.

I DO NOT WANT TO BE ANOTHER DR. IGGY.

RIP DR. IGGY.

This. Is. Just. Sad.
