The Department of Health (DOH advised the public to take precautions against water-borne diseases amid supply issues and the dry season.
The Department of Health on Wednesday advised the public to take precautions against water-borne diseases amid supply issues and the dry season.
On the sidelines of the launch of the Philippine Multisectoral Nutrition Project, Vergeire said that it was important to be aware of how to prevent these illnesses. “Kung hindi po tayo sigurado doon sa source of water natin lalong lalo na kung nagkukulang na po, maaring pakuluan po natin ang tubig natin kahit mga limang minuto para masigurado natin wala tayong makuhang sakit dulot nito,” she added.
“Lagi nating palagiang lilinisan ang mga kinakainan natin, hindi lamang sa tubig nakukuha ang sakit, kapag ang pagkain ay madumi dahil madumi ang tubig na ginamit sa paghahanda nitong pagkain magkakasakit din po ang ating mga kababayan,” Vergeire said.
