00:00There are eight places in the country where the dengue outbreak is possible to be declared due to the increasing number of cases.

00:05Details on this were brought to you by BN Manalo and PTV Manila.

00:10After the dengue outbreak was declared, the local government of Quezon City, Kamakailana,

00:16due to the increasing number of cases of people infected with deadly diseases,

00:21has been rushing to clean up the area around their house in Barangay Matandang, Balara.

00:27Especially since their house is located near a creek, which is a possible source of pollution for mosquitoes.

00:33We need to clean the inside and outside of the house.

00:36We need to remove the wheels, throw away the things that are on the floor.

00:44We also need to remove the bottles.

00:46And as a precaution to their children, especially to their four-year-old son, who is still young.

00:53We also need to apply a lotion for the mosquitoes to avoid dengue.

00:59We also need to wear pajamas.

01:01Sometimes, I talk to the people inside the house so that the mosquitoes can leave the house.

01:06Once again, the barangay of Matandang, Balara in Quezon City is considering

01:11to remove the fish from the river and the vacant lot.

01:15It is to be remembered that in 2018 and 2019,

01:18the barangay started to distribute fish.

01:21After that, two people got sick and died.

01:23There were more than 200 cases of dengue in the area.

01:26But the Department of Environment and Natural Resources and the Department of Health

01:32have not given up on removing the fish as a solution to the dengue outbreak.

01:36According to the DNR,

01:38there is still no sufficient study to prove that this is an effective solution.

01:43In our opinion, because we did that,

01:47we saw that the number of cases of dengue decreased.

01:54Although we still believe that there is still a lot of help for the fish,

01:59especially in the vacant lot where the barangay cannot enter to clean it.

02:07There are 45 cases of dengue in the area.

02:10But despite this, the barangay is ready to follow the orders of the Health Department

02:16and they will focus more on cleaning and information dissemination against dengue.

02:23We will also follow the 5S strategy of the Department of Health.

02:30Removing the fish is our last option if we cannot find it.

02:39Aside from cleaning the area,

02:42an alternative method was launched by a barangay in Mandaluyong City

02:47as a solution to the increase in the number of cases of dengue.

02:50This is the one with the peso in the mosque.

02:52Anyone can bring any number of fish,

02:55alive or dead, in exchange for the peso.

02:58The Health Department said,

03:00aside from QC,

03:01there are still 8 places in the country where dengue outbreak is expected to be announced

03:06due to the continuous increase in the number of cases.

03:08According to the DOH,

03:10more than 20,000 cases of dengue have been reported in the Philippines since February.

03:16This is more than 40% higher than the previous year.

03:22Although there is an increase in the number of cases,

03:24the fatality rate remains at 0.35%.

03:29The declaration of an outbreak is not considered a disease.

03:33This means that the number of cases has increased

03:36more than what is usually expected in one part of the year.

03:41The DOH also reminded people not to hesitate

03:44if they feel any symptoms of dengue

03:47and to immediately consult a doctor.

03:50Meanwhile, the Health Department has ordered the local governments

03:55to declare a dengue outbreak.
