The Future of Learning in Medicine
With medical training becoming increasingly demanding, innovative approaches like the PedsMaster Ultimate Quiz Show prove that learning doesn’t have to be dull or stressful. By turning knowledge into a game, we’re not just preparing future pediatricians—we’re making them more confident, capable, and ready for anything.

❗❗Dahil sa patuloy na pagtaas ng kaso ng tigdas sa bansa simula 2025, nananawagan ang PPS at PIDSP sa publiko at healthcare providers na palakasin ang mga hakbang upang mapigilan ang pagkalat ng sakit. Ayon sa ulat ng DOH, tumaas ng 87% ang kaso ng tigdas sa nakalipas na linggo. Dahil dito, hinihikayat ang lahat, lalo na ang mga batang wala pang 5 taong gulang, na kumpletuhin ang kanilang bakuna.

Ang tigdas ay lubhang nakakahawa at maaaring magdulot ng malubhang komplikasyon tulad ng pulmonya at encephalitis, ngunit ito ay maaaring maiwasan sa pamamagitan ng bakuna. Ang DOH ay nagbibigay ng MCV sa edad na 9 at 12 buwan, at mahigpit na hinihikayat ang catch-up immunization para sa mga hindi pa kumpleto ang bakuna.

Pinagtitibay ng PPS at PIDSP ang kahalagahan ng malawakang kampanya sa pagbabakuna at hinihikayat ang healthcare providers na aktibong talakayin ito sa kanilang mga pasyente. Mahalaga rin ang agarang pag-uulat ng mga kaso sa local health authorities upang mapigilan ang paglaganap ng sakit.

[LOOK] The Philippine Pediatric Society ( ) and the Pediatric Infectious Disease Society of the Philippines ( ) call on healthcare providers and the public to increase all efforts to mitigate the spread of , including participating in intensified immunization programs of the Department of Health (Philippines).

Don't let measles spread... vaccinate your children and all those eligible! It is our best shot!
