00:00The Department of Health is advising the public to adjust the time of class to the hot weather to minimize the effects of extreme heat.
00:13Witness, Ian Cruz.
00:15Outside their home in Baseco Compound in Manila, the parents of these children set up a portable pool to cool themselves.
00:27Since yesterday, it was very hot. That's why we set up a swimming pool for the children.
00:34The poultry farms in Pangasinan were advised to watch their pets so that they won't get sick in the middle of the hot weather.
00:42They are always being fed with water. Their water is always being monitored so that they won't catch a cold.
00:49It's dark there. They won't get sick.
00:51Five places in the country reported a dangerous heat index today.
00:57Those who are sick are being taken care of because they may get dizzy, have a headache, and others.
01:05The Department of Health is advising to take maintenance medicine at the right time.
01:09When we are stressed and because of the heat, you may get frustrated, you may have a high blood pressure.
01:19If you don't take medicine, it may lead to a heart attack or a stroke.
01:26It's better to wear clothes made of light materials to keep your body fresh.
01:32Avoid going out from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. when the sun is strong and always drink water.
01:38Don't go to a cold or hot place.
01:42Don't go to a cold or hot place. It can cause headaches and stress to the body.
01:50Those who have a cold can get asthma.
01:53You should also have a hydration break that won't go down for 15 to 20 minutes.
01:58That's one way to avoid getting a heatstroke.
02:01If you may get dizzy and have a headache because it's so hot, that's important as well.
02:08The MMDA is implementing the 30-minute heatstroke break policy for their enforcers and MetroAids in Lansangan
02:16from March 3 to May 31.
02:18There is an additional 15 minutes if the heat index exceeds 40 degrees Celsius.
02:24Just like earlier, the heat index in Pasay reached 40 degrees.
02:28Bureau of Corrections bought sandals for PDLs and assured that there is enough water in the cells.
02:35DepEd is also involved in adjusting the schedule of some classes.
02:40In some places, the morning class is from 6 to 10 a.m.,
02:43the afternoon class is from 2 to 6 p.m.,
02:46and the asynchronous learning is from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
02:51Their advice to students is to avoid going out every day.
02:56You should remove your clothes from the airway and in every classroom,
03:01there should be a first aid kit with a cooling box and a thermometer.
03:05DepEd will also provide additional electric fans in the classrooms.
03:10They will also build hydration stations and will provide a water container.
03:15Together with LGUs and other government agencies,
03:19they will inspect the classrooms.
03:22According to Pagasa, although it is possible for it to rain in some places,
03:26it does not mean that the temperature will drop.
03:30It is sad to say that if it rains for a moment,
03:33we will have more vapors around us.
03:36So it means that our relative humidity will increase,
03:39or the heat index will increase.
03:43In Metro Manila, there is a chance of localized thunderstorms tomorrow.
03:48Based on the data of Metro Weather,
03:50some parts of the Northern and Central Luzon, Palawan, Bicol Region,
03:55and a large part of Visayas and Mindanao will be affected.
03:58According to Pagasa, it is possible that Amihan and Shirlines will be affected again tomorrow,
04:04especially in the northern and eastern part of Luzon.
04:07Places where Amihan and Shirlines will not reach will have a hot Easter lease.
04:13Based on the forecast tomorrow,
04:15the danger level of the heat index in San Jose Occidental Mindoro may be felt again.
04:21For GMA Integrated News, I am Ian Cruz, your witness.
