00:00Authorities and residents in Ilocos Region were alerted due to the increase in the number of vendors.
00:09We are always cleaning.
00:11It's hard. If you don't have money, if you go to the hospital, you don't have money to spend.
00:20The number of cases in the region increased by 80 percent this year compared to the same period in 2024.
00:28Most of them were in Pangasinan where two were infected.
00:33In Quezon City, almost 2,000 cases of dengue were reported in the city.
00:39Eleven were infected.
00:41According to the Quezon City Epidemiology and Surveillance Division,
00:45the number of cases of dengue was increased by almost 200 percent from January 1 to February 14
00:52compared to the same period last year.
00:56That's why in Tandang Sora Elementary School, students are encouraged to wear long sleeves and long socks
01:04to avoid getting bitten by mosquitos.
01:07There are already five cases of dengue in the school this year.
01:11Mosquitos fly low.
01:16So the mosquitos that get bitten are mostly the arms and legs of children.
01:22They also recommended the use of mosquito repellent.
01:26Parent volunteers continue to clean around the school.
01:31It's okay because they have protection.
01:36For me, it's okay.
01:38Of course, there are a lot of people who died.
01:43It's hard. I only have one child.
01:47According to the Department of Health,
01:49almost 30,000 cases of dengue were reported in the country from January 1 to February 1 this year,
01:57most of which were in the Shum area inside the Calabar Zone, Central Zone and NCR.
02:03We have a Shum, LGU, which is also in Quezon City.
02:07We saw an increase in the number of cases.
02:10Because of the alarming number of cases,
02:13the Empowering Networks to Defeat Dengue or End Dengue Coalition asked the President
02:18to cancel the search for a vaccine against dengue.
02:23WHO recommended that for highly endemic countries like the Philippines,
02:33use effective methods.
02:36Vaccine is one of them.
02:38According to the DOH, a vaccine is currently being studied by the Food and Drug Administration.
02:44The DOH's advice now is for everyone.
02:47Science should be planned and ensured.
02:51We should monitor the evaluation of our Food and Drug Administration.
02:56The PhilHealth increased the coverage for severe dengue cases.
03:00It means that patients can claim up to P47,000.
03:06For GMA Integrated News, I'm Oscar Oidanginyong.
