01:20According to Iloilo Governor Arthur Defensor Jr., the province should not be held accountable even if there is a dengue outbreak.
01:27The most important thing is that we will have access to your quick response fund. Right now, we have already prepared for that. We might, together with the municipalities.
01:40According to the Department of Health Region 6, the number of cases of dengue in Western Visayas has reached 10,188.
01:48Iloilo has the highest number of cases, 3,914, followed by Negros Occidental, which has 1,584, and Aklan, which has 1,319 dengue cases.
02:01In response to the current situation, the Department of Health Western Visayas Center for Health Development has activated its regional dengue task force and interagency collaboration for outbreak preparedness and response strategies.
02:18Igan, according to the Iloilo Provincial Government, the dengue test kit, IV fluids and bed capacity in hospitals are ready in case there are additional admissions due to dengue.
