00:00The Food and Drug Administration is just waiting for approval to use the Q-Dengue vaccine,

00:06which is one of the ways to reduce the number of dengue cases in the country.

00:11BN Manalo of PTV in the national news.

00:16After the controversial use of the dengue vaccine, Dengvaxia, in 2017,

00:22the Philippine Medical Association believes that the Philippines is ready again

00:27to release a new vaccine against dengue.

00:31Especially now that the number of dengue cases is increasing in different parts of the Philippines.

00:36According to Health Secretary Ted Herbosa,

00:38the 2nd Generation Dengue Vaccine, Q-Denga, has already applied for a Certificate of Product Registration or CPR

00:42from the Food and Drug Administration.

00:47This is a Japan-based Takeda Pharmaceuticals

00:50and is just waiting for its license to be approved for use.

00:55It's been a long time, since 2016, since 70 years ago, if it's possible to have a vaccine.

01:02We need at least 5 years to see the impact.

01:05That's what the WHO said, it's not just a rumor.

01:09There's a seasonal variation of dengue.

01:11It takes time, you will need to see the surveillance.

01:14Some doctors' groups in the FDA called for approval of the Q-Denga license

01:20because of the increase in the number of dengue cases in the country.

01:23But according to Herbosa,

01:24vector control is still the best solution for dengue whenever it rains.

01:29The PMA did not stop the loss of fish as a solution for dengue.

01:35Another barangay in QC is considering

01:38to spread fish in rivers and vacant lots.

01:42So far, in the studies or researches and publications recent on dengue,

01:48there's still no solution.

01:50The medical experts called for an effective solution

01:55to the increasing number of dengue cases in the country.

01:58Because of this, the Philippine Medical Association launched

02:02the End Dengue Coalition or Empowering Networks to Defeat Dengue Coalition

02:07formed by medical societies.

02:09This is a support to the target of the World Health Organization

02:13to reduce the number of dengue cases and zero deaths in 2030 by 50%.

02:19We will work together and listen to our fellow countrymen

02:24who supported End Dengue,

02:28meaning Empowering Networks to Defeat Dengue.

02:32The media also played an important role

02:34in the information dissemination in the fight against dengue.

02:39From PTV4 Manila, BN Manalo, Balitang Pambansa.
