00:00Many were alarmed by the sudden death of actress Barbie Shue due to pneumonia.
00:06Experts in the so-called disease explained that the patients of the Lung Center of the Philippines died of a rare disease in 2024.
00:16And Joseph Moro was the one who was diagnosed with the disease.
00:22To those who are taking medical exam or laboratory, do you know how your X-ray results are being checked?
00:28Based on these two X-rays, one has a lot of parts that are black, indicating that the lung is healthy and has enough air.
00:36The other has a white part that could be the lungs.
00:40This is an X-ray of a person with pneumonia.
00:42Cough, phlegm, it could trigger tightening of the airways, so they could feel shortness of breath.
00:54It's similar to asthma or COPD, even if they don't have it.
00:58When it's dangerous, it turns white, it consolidates, or it could be not only one side, it could be both sides.
01:06Yesterday, many were surprised by the sudden death of Taiwanese actress Barbie Shue,
01:12who was recognized for the role of Shang Tsai in the telenovela Meet Your Garden.
01:16Pneumonia, also known as influenza, is the so-called death of a 48-year-old actress while on vacation in Japan with her family.
01:24Dr. Norberto Francisco of the Lung Center of the Philippines explained that pneumonia is an infection of lung tissues.
01:31It could be a virus, bacteria, tuberculosis, or fungus.
01:36In the case of Shue, it could be an infection of influenza virus, like the ones in ordinary lungs.
01:44She had a viral infection, which is usually the more common kind of infection.
01:51Yeah, the common colds.
01:53But how bad it will be depends on the infection of the microbes,
01:59the resistance of the person, if the disease has a different comorbidity, age, and environment.
02:06People might be afraid, they might die from that.
02:09But it's not always because of one factor alone.
02:13It's always an interplay of factors.
02:15It could be that one of them is sick and the other is not sick.
02:19It was reported that Shue had epilepsy and had a vitral valve prolapse related to a valve in the heart.
02:26But Dr. Francisco can't say if it's related to the death of the actress.
02:31In the Philippines, there are many cases of pneumonia and flu every time it rains.
02:37The weather is also cold.
02:38The last case was in Iloilo.
02:40That's why experts are urging to be extra careful, especially those who are old and have comorbidities.
02:46According to the Lung Center of the Philippines,
02:48pneumonia was the second worst case of pneumonia in the last year.
02:54Because it's important to have a strong body against pneumonia,
02:57Dr. Francisco's advice is not to abuse your body.
03:00Eat nutritious food and make sure you have enough rest.
03:04Vaccination against viruses should also be updated,
03:07especially those with low resistance.
03:10The strain of the virus mutates.
03:14That's why the strain of the virus changes every year.
03:18And that's the reason why we give the vaccines yearly.
03:21Aside from the flu vaccine,
03:22the primary cause of bacterial pneumonia will also be vaccinated.
