Public Advisory No. 2025-039 | October 10, 2025

Matapos ang naitalang Magnitude 7.5 na lindol na yumanig sa Davao Oriental at mga karatig na lugar kabilang na ang Eastern Visayas, ang Department of Health Eastern Visayas Center for Health Development (DOH-EVCHD) ay maariing pinapaalalahanan ang publiko na maging alerto at ligtas laban sa alinmang panganib dulot ng lindol.

Ayon sa Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS-DOST), maaari o inaasahan parin ang pagkakaroon ng aftershocks o mga pagyanig. Ito ay ang kasunod na paglindol na mas mahina, nangyayari ito dahil patuloy pang gumagalaw ang lupa o bitak (fault) pagkatapos ng malakas na lindol.

Dahil dito, pinapayuhan ang publiko na maging maalam at handa upang masiguro ang kaligtasan ng sarili at pamilya.

Sa oras ng alinmang sakuna, narito ang mga dapat tandaan;
1. Ihanda ang Go Bag. Tiyakin na ang inyong Go Bag ay may pagkain, hygiene kit, ekstrang damit, first aid, cellphone at charger, pera, at ID. Siguruhing ang first aid kit ay naglalaman ng mga sumusunod: Alcohol, Band aid, Povidone-Iodine, Ointment para sa sugat, Paracetamol, at mga gamot.
2. Suriin ang bahay para sa anumang sira at bitak. Tignan kung may tagas ang gas tank at isara agad ang main switch.
3. Umiwas sa mga gusaling may bitak, nakalaylay na kuryente, lupang maaaring gumuho, at dalampasigan.
4. Matapos ang malakas na lindol, posible ang pagkakaroon ng tsunami o matataas na alon mula sa dagat o baybayin. Para sa inyong kaligtasan, alamin ang pinakamalapit na evacuation center o agad na lumikas sa mas mataas na lugar kung kinakailangan.

Sa huli, palaging umantabay, maging mapanuri, at sundin ang mga abiso mula sa PHIVOLCS, Municipal/City/Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (M/C/PDRRMC), at DOH-EVCHD upang masiguro ang kaligtasan ng inyong pamilya.

Public Advisory No. 2025-038 | October 2, 2025
As part of the Department of Health-Eastern Visayas Center for Health Development’s (DOH-EV CHD) ongoing commitment to providing quality and reliable healthcare in the region, the DOH-EVCHD hereby informs all concerned to strictly observe the proper protocols for vaccine and cold chain management, especially during power interruptions.
To prioritize the safety and effectiveness of vaccines, as well as to safeguard vaccine potency and ensure the integrity of the cold chain during power outages, all health facilities and vaccination sites are strongly advised to adhere to the following critical measures:
✅ Keep cold chain equipment closed during power interruptions to preserve
proper storage temperatures.
✅ Record the exact time of power loss and restoration.
✅ Monitor and record temperatures regularly during the outage and after power
is restored.
✅ Use backup power sources (generators, solar units, UPS) if available.
✅ Know your cold chain equipment’s holdover time (typically 24–72 hours) and
prepare cold boxes with conditioned ice packs if the outage may exceed
this period.
✅ Coordinate immediately with your local power provider or electric cooperative
to report the outage and request restoration updates.
✅ Activate your facility’s contingency plan to safeguard vaccines, including
possible transfer to alternative cold storage sites if necessary.
✅ Check temperature logs before using vaccines and quarantine those
potentially exposed beyond safe temperature ranges.
✅ Report all incidents within 24 hours to your Cold Chain Officer.
For information and guidance.

✨ "Nay, Tay, ipa-Newborn Screening n’yo ko ha!"
Tuwing unang linggo ng Oktubre, ipinagdiriwang natin ang National Newborn Screening Week para ipaalala sa mga magulang na ang isang maliit na tusok sa sakong ni baby ay maaaring magdala ng panghabambuhay na kalusugan at saya. 💉➡️❤️
Kayang i-detect ng Newborn Screening ang higit sa 29 na sakit nang maaga. Ito ay LIBRE para sa mga PhilHealth members at available nationwide—kaya wala nang dahilan, Nay at Tay! 🍼
Kaya bago ang unang family selfie o bago i-prepare ang bonggang OOTD ni baby, siguraduhin munang unahin ang kalusugan. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Dahil ang pag-prioritize sa kalusugan ngayon ay magbibigay ng mas maliwanag, mas masaya, at mas malusog na kinabukasan para kay baby. 🌈✨
📌 Magtanong lang sa inyong doktor, midwife, o nurse tungkol dito.

Alam niyo ba na ang Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease (HFMD) ay madaling makahawa at kadalasang nakaaapekto sa mga batang edad 5 pababa. Kapag may lagnat, singaw sa bibig, o pantal sa kamay at paa ang iyong anak, huwag itong ipagsawalang-bahala.
Mabilis kumalat ang virus sa pamamagitan ng ubo, bahing, o paggamit ng magka-parehong kagamitan. Hikayatin silang palaging maghugas ng kamay, iwasang hawakan ang mukha, at linisin ang mga gamit na palaging ginagamit.
At higit sa lahat—kumonsulta agad sa health center sa unang senyales ng sintomas. Kaunting pag-iingat ay malaking proteksyon para sa iyong anak at sa iba. 💛
