00:00According to the Department of Health, from January 1 to June 15, almost 78,000 cases of dengue in the Philippines were reported this year.

00:10Only 205 people died because of dengue compared to the last year, when dengue cases increased by almost 15% this year.

00:20Suki, even if you avoid everything, have you experienced that you are almost bitten by a mosquito?

00:24Yes.

00:25But next to you, there is not a single bite.

00:27The mosquitoes also look juicy.

00:29To better understand the taste of mosquitoes when it comes to their bites,

00:33we will be joined by the general physician, Dr. Suki, Dr. Via Roderos Galvan.

00:39Dr. Via, welcome to Dapat Alamo.

00:41Welcome back, Dr. Via.

00:42Thank you, Kim and Susan.

00:44Dr. Via, there are some factors that mosquitoes usually look for in their victims.

00:49One of them is the blood type.

00:51What is the blood type of mosquitoes?

00:53Actually, there are many reasons, Kim.

00:56Number one, based on the studies of our experts,

00:59we can see that the blood type O is more likely to be bitten by mosquitoes.

01:04Because mosquitoes have receptors that can detect the blood type of a human being.

01:11They are good.

01:12Me too.

01:13Let's bite each other.

01:14Let's bite each other.

01:15I also get bitten by mosquitoes.

01:16What is the type that they don't like?

01:18Usually, another type would be AB.

01:23AB is another, but O is more likely.

01:26AB is the rarest.

01:29So usually, blood type O.

01:32What is the blood type O?

01:34Type O.

01:36Dr. Via, according to some studies,

01:38it is said that when a person sweats,

01:40or even if they sweat, they are the one who gets bitten by mosquitoes.

01:45Is this true?

01:46Actually, there are many factors.

01:47Sweating actually has no smell.

01:49What makes us sweat, which attracts mosquitoes, are the microbes.

01:54The germs that are in our skin.

01:56That's why proper hygiene is necessary,

01:59especially if we want to avoid getting bitten by mosquitoes.

02:02Because it's the microbes in our skin that causes the bite.

02:06So if we have a lot of microbes in our skin,

02:07there will be more mosquitoes.

02:08Before taking a bath, mosquitoes won't bite you.

02:10Yes, that's why hygiene is important.

02:12It's beautiful.

02:13Doc, it's said that the color of clothes has an effect on attracting mosquitoes.

02:16Is that true?

02:17That's right, Kim.

02:18Mosquitoes are more prone to see darker colors.

02:23So they can see green or black.

02:27That's why when we wear lighter colors like gray or white,

02:31it's less likely that they will see that.

02:33So they won't bite you?

02:35It's less likely that we won't get bitten if we wear lighter colors.

02:42It's just white.

02:44What about carbon dioxide?

02:45When you exhale, it attracts mosquitoes.

02:50Actually, that's another factor that attracts mosquitoes.

02:54The more likely you are that you'll exhale more carbon dioxide,

02:59like mosquitoes,

03:00because they need more air intake.

03:02Mosquitoes also get bitten more often?

03:04Yes, because they need more air intake.

03:08So they also exhale more carbon dioxide.

03:12I know that mosquitoes are more likely to get bitten by Mr. because of his beard.

03:15That's different, Kim.

03:17That's a big beard.

03:18Thank you so much, Dr. Roderos Galvan.

03:20Thank you so much for coming, Doc.
