00:00More than 160 people have been victimized by gunfire even though the New Year celebration is still tomorrow.
00:07Hospitals are preparing for the live gunfire of Marie Zumari from the Tondo Medical Center.
00:18All the DOH hospitals and regional offices throughout the country are now codewriting
00:23as part of the Tondo Medical Center.
00:26This means that they are already prepared for any emergency,
00:31especially in anticipation of gunfire tomorrow on the eve of the New Year.
00:39The 18-year-old who was brought to the Tondo Medical Center after being shot by a 5-star
00:46is still suffering from the pain.
00:48He is one of seven cases of firecracker-related injury since December 21 here in the hospital.
00:53I was just testing it. It popped out of my hand suddenly.
00:56I didn't want to pop it. I was suffocating.
01:00How painful was it?
01:02It was painful. It popped out of my hand.
01:05I was about to pop it.
01:07He said it's a good thing that this is the only way he was able to reach it
01:10because it can be more dangerous for the victims of gunfire.
01:14It can be fatal. It can be fatal.
01:18It can be fatal. We call it mangled extremity.
01:21His finger can be cut on the spot.
01:25In Jose R. Reyes Memorial Medical Center, there are 17 cases since December 21.
01:30Three were operated on. One was cut when he was raised.
01:33While for one child, two fingers were cut.
01:37Because of the expected gunfire, especially on the eve of the New Year,
01:43the Fireworks Related Injury Area was built so that the emergency cases can be addressed immediately.
01:49While the patients are collecting information, their wounds will be cleaned here.
01:54If their wounds are more serious,
01:57here are the medical equipment that can be used on you,
02:02such as these needles to cut fingers or bones.
02:07Remember, doctors, not to wait for you to use these
02:10before you remember the danger of gunfire.
02:14Gunfire is just temporary happiness.
02:17But if you lose your finger, you lose your eye.
02:19This is a long life. There's no turning back.
02:22From December 22 to 6 a.m. earlier,
02:25the total number of gunshot victims reached 163.
02:2944 percent, which is higher than the same time in 2023.
02:33There are 135 cases of these, 19 years old and below,
02:37and 148 are men.
02:39In case of a gunshot wound,
02:41just flush it in running water,
02:44clean it with gauze,
02:47and bring it to the hospital.
02:48If the finger is cut,
02:50because some people just want to return the finger,
02:52put it in a zip lock,
02:54clean it with water,
02:56and put it in a cooler with ice.
02:59Don't put it directly on the ice.
03:01But not all fingers can be returned.
03:04We will still assess it.
03:06There are eight PNP members who were injured in Boga
03:09and more than 8,000 were confiscated.
03:13In Cuyapon, Nueva Ecija,
03:1477-year-old man was killed
03:17after a gunshot wound was found on December 22.
03:21My father saw him here.
03:23He ran to the hospital.
03:26He was shot in the leg.
03:28Two legs?
03:29Yes.
03:30His leg was cut.
03:33The victims' relatives are not sure
03:35what kind of gunshot wound was found.
03:37But they used to make gunshot wounds
03:40and sometimes were arrested because there was no permit.
03:42The investigation of the incident continues.
03:45One of the things that is monitored every new year
03:48is the incident of indiscriminate discharge of firearms.
03:51According to the PNP's record,
03:52there were 15 cases of indiscriminate discharge of firearms,
03:56and four cases of legal gunshot wounds.
03:58The PNP reminds...
03:59There are many ways for us to be happy
04:01and make noise in the new year.
04:03That's why the PNP's wish is
04:05for us to celebrate the new year together
04:10and no one will be disgraced,
04:12whoever we love in life.
04:18Emil, the authorities repeatedly remind us
04:21that gunshots are dangerous.
04:23So if you don't want to be the next one
04:25to be taken to the emergency rooms like this,
04:28just don't get shot.
04:31Emil?
04:32Thank you very much, Maryse Umali.
