𝐉𝐔𝐍𝐄 𝐈𝐒 𝐃𝐄𝐍𝐆𝐔𝐄 𝐀𝐖𝐀𝐑𝐄𝐍𝐄𝐒𝐒 𝐌𝐎𝐍𝐓𝐇

City Health Office Celebrating the Dengue Awareness month participated by kagawad on Health, SK members, Midwives and Nurses.

June is designated as Dengue Awareness Month (especially in the Philippines and parts of Southeast Asia) primarily because the rainy season begins in June, which leads to an increase in mosquito breeding sites and a higher risk of dengue transmission.

“Mag‑Taob. Taktak. Tuyo. Takip.” – Ligtas na Paaralan, Ligtas na Pamayanan.

1. Tandaan ang 4S strategy:
Taob (Search & destroy): Alisin at linisin ang mga lalagyan ng tubig para hindi pamugaran ng lamok.
Taktak (Tap): Patuyuing mabuti ang mga kagamitan pagkatapos gamitin.
Tuyo (Dry): Hayaang matuyo nang ganap ang mga lalagyan—kahit maliit na patak ng tubig, puwedeng maging lumikha ng lamok.
Takip (Cover): Lagyan ng mahigpit na takip ang mga imbakan ng tubig para hindi mapasukan ng lamok.

2. Proteksyon sa sarili:
Magsuot ng panghabang-sleeves, mag-apply ng mosquito repellent, at siguraduhing may screen sa bintana/porta—lalo na pag pasok ng gabi.

3. May sintomas? Kumonsulta agad!:
Kung may lagnat nang higit sa 2–3 araw, matinding pananakit ng katawan, rashes, o iba pang sintomas—mag-patingin kaagad.

4. Fogging = sidekick, hindi hero:
Gabayan lang ang fogging o misting sa hotspot areas—hindi ito permanenteng solusyon. Ang tunay na lakas ay nasa preventive action.

Iligan City Vector Borne Disease Members:
1. Dr. Henissa E. Bertulfo, Medical Officer IV-for Welcome and opening remarks.
2. Dr. Martin Clyde Paglinawan VBD Medical Coordinator, for orientation and Dengue fever awareness explains how the dengue spread.
3. Ms. Lilibeth R. Orbe RN, VBD Nurse Program Coordinator- Interactive session( Quizzes, Games on Dengue Fever.
4. Ms. Kristine Herrero RN, Disease Surveillance Officer-for giving updates on the status of Dengue Surveillance Data.
5. Mr. Karl Michael Silva RN, -explains the fogging preparation and information.
6. Mr. Junelle E. Lacio, Mr. Ian Jason Sweet-Signing of participants commitment signatures and distribution of information materials.

We often label kids as "selfish" when they don't want to share—but the truth is, sharing is a complex skill that takes time to develop. Toddlers aren’t refusing to share to be difficult… they’re still learning what it even means.

Support, model, and be patient. That’s how they grow. 💛

𝐂𝐇𝐎, 𝐌𝐈-𝐃𝐈𝐒𝐂𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐀𝐆𝐄 𝐒𝐀 𝐏𝐀𝐆𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐎𝐊 𝐎 𝐏𝐀𝐆𝐓𝐀𝐌𝐁𝐀𝐋 𝐋𝐀𝐌𝐀𝐍𝐆 𝐎𝐆 𝐀𝐇𝐎𝐒 𝐊𝐔𝐍𝐆 𝐌𝐀𝐏𝐀𝐀𝐊𝐀𝐍 𝐎𝐆 𝐈𝐑𝐎 𝐎 𝐈𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐆

Kinahangan obserbahan ang iro o iring nga makapaak og tawo sulod sa 14 ka adlaw, sumala ni Dr. Glenn Manarpaac, ang Head sa City Health Office. Kini tungod dili mabuhi ang hayop nga dunay rabies og mas dugay sa 14 ka adlaw.
“kung buhi pa ang mananap beyond 14 days, dili na need magpa -inject kay walay rabies. Ang animal nga naay rabies dili mosurvive in 14 days,” sumala niya.

Apan kung pananglit nga dili makita ang hayop o ma-obserbahan niini nga mga adlaw, abiso ni Manarpaac nga magpa-inject og rabies vaccine ang tawo nga napaakan bisan unsa pa kagamay o kadako sa pinaakan o kinawrasan sa hayop.
Gi-discourage sab ni Manarpaac ang pagpatandok o pagtambal lamang og ahos.

Gipasalig ni Dr. Glenn Manarpaac, ang Head sa City Health Office, nga confidential o walay makahibalo kung dunay magpa-test, magpa-test o kaha magpa-counsel labot sa HIV o human immunodeficiency virus. Ang Philippine HIV and AIDS Policy Act (RA 11166) usa ka balaud nga gadili sa pagpakatap sa detalye, pagpa-test ug health status sa ilang kliyente. Sumala ni Manarpaac, sa tawo nga nagpa-test lamang i-release ang resulta sa test.

Sumala sab niya, duna silay andam nga medication o treatment alang sa mga magpositibo sa HIV.
“Sa una kung naay HIV murag death sentence, it is no longer the case. Naay ready medication or treatment so they can live their lives as normal individuals,” sumala niya.

Mosulod lamang sa Room 206 sa City Health Office ug dili na kinahanglang molinya. O kaha motawag sa numero 0912 879 5981. Libre ang test ug counseling.

Gi-awhag nga magpa-test ang men having s*x with men, dunay multiple partners, ug ga-practice og unprotected s*x. Duna sab Teen and Youth Centers sa mga barangay health centers alang sa mga batan-on kung maulaw nga mosulti ngadto sa mga ginikanan.
