SEVERAL health experts in Central Visayas attribute the resurgence of vaccine-preventable diseases, such as “whooping cough,” to the low child immunization rate due to parental hesitancy towards vaccination.Local health experts also urged collaboration among authorities, communities and parents to address vaccine hesitancy and ensure widespread immunization to safeguard children’s health and prevent regional public health threats.This comes amid the resurgence of pertussis, or “whooping cough,” in Central Visayas, especially in Cebu. Whooping cough, caused by the bacterium Bordetella pertussis, is a fatal respiratory disease that has so far claimed the lives of six infants in Cebu.Low immunization rateDr. Eugenia Mercedes Cañal, regional epidemiologist of the Department of Health (DOH) 7, said in a news forum on March 26, 2024 that the region’s child immunization rate is only 60 percent, falling 35 percent short of the required herd immunity rate.Cañal noted that some parents seem to prioritize birthday celebrations over completing their children’s prescribed immunizations.In a separate interview, Ruff Vincent Valdevieso, DOH 7’s National Immunization Program coordinator, told SunStar Cebu that the region should at least have a 90 percent immunization rate to achieve herd immunity.Herd immunity refers to the indirect protection from an infectious disease that happens when a population is immune either through vaccination or immunity developed through previous infection.Cañal attributed the resurgence of vaccine-preventable diseases to low immunization rates resulting from parental vaccine hesitancy. She also highlighted the the spread of misinformation on social media platforms as another contributing factor.Dr. Daisy Villa, head of the Cebu City Health Department, also tied the parental vaccine hesitancy to the effects of the Dengvaxia scandal in 2017.“When we had (the issue on) Dengvaxia, of course, the parents were scared to have their children vaccinated,” she said during a virtual press conference on March 27, noting that the Covid-19 pandemic further instilled fear among parents.However, Villa clarified that unlike Dengvaxia, vaccination against whooping cough is already part of the existing routine vaccination for newborns.Dengvaxia was intended to prevent dengue fever. But controversy erupted in the Philippines when the vaccine was found to increase the risk of disease severity in people who had not had a previous dengue infection. This was revealed in the middle of a DOH-administered school-based vaccination program.Valdevieso emphasized the importance of taking advantage of the free vaccination services to boost children’s immunity against preventable diseases. These vaccines for children aged zero to one year are provided at government-run health facilities, including barangay health centers.In Cebu City, Villa said there are currently 5,000 single doses of the pentavalent vaccine against whooping cough available.The pentavalent DPT-HepB-HiB vaccine protects children from diphtheria, tetanus, Hepatitis B and Haemophilus influenzae type B. DOH 7 reported six infant deaths from whooping cough in Central Visayas: three from Cebu City, two from Mandaue City, and one from Lapu-Lapu City. Villa said the deaths included a one-month-old from Barangay Sawang Calero on Jan. 31, a 16-day-old from Barangay Talamban last Feb. 27, and a two-month-old from Barangay Tejero on Feb. 20. She clarified that Cebu City had only 12 cases, with the supposed 13th patient, an infant, from Surigao City in Mindanao, who provided a Cebu City address upon admission to the Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center for treatment. / KJF Where can I watch NBA Playoffs in 2022 Philippines? Philippines GOV. Gwendolyn Garcia has withheld declaring a state of calamity in Cebu Province to address the effects of the high heat index. In a press conference on Monday, April 8, 2024, Garcia said the Provincial Government is monitoring the situation across all local government units (LGUs) in its jurisdiction, including studying the crop yield and water supply.She assured farmers and fisherfolk that they are insured under the Philippine Crop Insurance Corp. “Damage to crops will be compensated accordingly,” Garcia said. “As of now, we will watch and study the situation very carefully. We will assist where we can assist and we will make a decision when we have to make a decision,” Garcia added.SunStar Cebu tried to secure data on crop production in the province, but the Provincial Agriculture Office would not provide it without the approval of the Office of the Governor. Localized problemThe governor pointed out that the water supply problem is evident only in Cebu City.She said the Province has a joint venture deal with a Manila-based water firm to extract water from the Luyang River in the northern town of Carman which is supplied to the Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD). On April 3, the MCWD reported a deficit in water production due to the El Niño phenomenon. This has resulted in consumers complaining about low water pressure or no water supply, particularly in elevated and interior areas. Garcia said she called all City and Municipal Risk Reduction and Management Offices under the Province’s jurisdiction to strengthen preventive measures to mitigate the effects of the drought, such as fire incidents.A grass fire broke out in the hinterlands of the southern town of Oslob late Saturday night, April 6, affecting up to 70 hectares of land in Barangays Poblacion, Cañang, Calumpang and Daan Lungsod.“To see to it that everyone is reminded of the risk of flammable materials that were normally, dili unta. This precisely because of abnormally high-temperature indices,” Garcia said. No letupThe weather bureau Pagasa announced on Tuesday that high temperatures during the day will persist despite scattered rains experienced at night.Jhomer Eclarino of the Regional Services Division of Pagasa Visayas said the rains are passing and are influenced by the easterlies.Easterlies are eastward-blowing trade winds common in tropical regions like the Philippines, bringing warm, humid weather and occasional rain showers.“There’s a chance of passing light rains, but the weather will continue to be hot,” he said in Cebuano.At 1 p.m. on Tuesday, Cebu recorded a heat index of 37 degrees Celsius. The figure is under the extreme caution classification, which is between 32 and 41 degrees Celsius, and can cause heat cramps and exhaustion and may also lead to a heat stroke.The heat index or “feels-like” temperature combines air temperature and humidity to indicate how hot the weather feels to the human body.AdviceSo far this year, Eclarino said, the highest heat index recorded in Cebu was 39 degrees Celsius last March 27.He encouraged the public to always adhere to precautionary and preventive measures for health safety.Earlier, Pagasa said the temperature is hottest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., but the Department of Health (DOH) 7 suggested avoiding the outdoors as early as 9 a.m.Last month, Dr. Eugenia Mercedes Cañal, regional epidemiologist, set measures for the public to follow this summer amid the El Niño.Aside from avoiding the outdoors during peak hours when the heat index is at its highest, she also recommended wearing sunscreen outside and emphasized the importance of staying hydrated by drinking plenty of water.SunStar Cebu earlier reported that the heat index in Cebu may reach a “dangerous” 51 degrees Celsius in the coming months.Eclarino said historical data shows Cebu typically experiences its highest temperatures in May. On May 31, 2010, also during an El Niño, the province recorded surface temperature at 37 degrees Celsius and its highest heat index at 49 degrees Celsius.Eclarino attributed the high heat index to the El Niño phenomenon.Cebu and nine other provinces in the Visayas region are currently designated as experiencing drought.The other provinces are Antique, Biliran, Eastern Samar, Guimaras, Iloilo, Leyte, Negros Oriental, Negros Occidental and Samar.Eclarino said a drought is characterized by an extended dry spell, either with five consecutive months of below-normal rainfall or three months of significantly reduced rainfall.Pagasa defines below-normal rainfall as 20 to 60 percent less than the usual amount, while way-below-normal rainfall indicates a decrease of more than 60 percent from the norm. / EHP, KJF

AS THE April 30 consolidation deadline looms, the Cebu-based traditional public utility jeepney (TPUJ) operators group has slammed the slow consolidation process under the Public Utility Vehicle (PUV) Modernization Program, saying operators should not be blamed for not making the deadline.On Tuesday, April 9, 2024, Pagkakaisa ng mga Samahan ng Tsuper at Opereytor Nationwide (Piston)-Cebu president Greg Perez told SunStar Cebu that he has some members who have applied for the mandatory franchise consolidation since 2019 who have remained in the “application process” under the system of the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board Central Visayas (LTFRB 7).Perez said these operators are in limbo, unable to tell what went wrong with their applications and who to blame for their situation.So is it the fault of the transport cooperative or the LTFRB, he asked. On Monday, April 8, LTFRB Chairman Teofilo Guadiz III called on jeepney operators and drivers to work on their consolidation into cooperatives before the April 30 deadline set by President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. passes, saying there will be no more extension of the deadline. “Nanulod sila og kooperatiba (sa) 2019 pa, pero ang problema kay naa lang gihapon sila nakasulod sa kooperatiba, pero wala pa sila ma-consolidate tungod nagtipun-og lang ang ilahang papel diha sa mga opisina sa cooperative,” Perez said. (They joined cooperatives in 2019 yet, but the problem is they are still in the cooperative, but they have not yet consolidated because the papers are just piling up in the office of the cooperatives.) He added that the Federation of Cebu Transport Cooperatives (FCTC) reported that it had consolidated 4,000 operators; however, upon their verification, they found the number to be only around 1,000. There were times the cooperatives asked for membership fees from the operators for them to be acknowledged as members and to be part of the consolidation, Perez said. “Problema kita sa pag-abot sa petsa (April) 30 sa atong mga operators nga dugay nang nisulod sa kooperatiba. Kinsay may pakisad-on ani? Ang operator pa ba gihapon sa panahon nga manakop na ang LTO (Land Transportation Office)? Ang LTFRB, ang operator ra gihapon nga wala nag-consolidate,” Perez said. (Our operators who have long joined cooperatives will have a problem when April 30 comes. Who will be considered at fault here? Will it still be the operator when the LTO begins making apprehensions? For the LTFRB, it will still be the operator, for not consolidating.)“Ang mga kooperatiba ug ang LTFRB man ang nalangay, ang nadugay. Mao unta toh gusto namo (ihangyo) nga ipagawas ang kamanduan ang LTFRB 7 nga dili panakpon ang mga nag-consolidate pa niadtong 2019 kay among tan-aw, dili sayop sa operator,” he added. (It’s the cooperatives and the LTFRB that have delayed things. That is why we wanted to request the release by LTFRB of an order not to apprehend those who attempted to consolidate since 2019 yet because the way we see it, it’s not the operators’ fault.)Once the April 30 deadline lapses, unconsolidated traditional jeepney operators will be designated as illegally operating their vehicles. Perez said there were times when these operators had to constantly follow up on and visit the offices of the cooperatives and the LTFRB 7, which forced the cooperatives and the LTFRB 7 to expedite the process, and yet many operators have not seen their consolidation, especially those who applied in 2019. He added that the LTFRB issued too late a memorandum allowing operators to withdraw their application from cooperatives with questionable processing time of application. Scrap modernizationOn the other hand, Perez said Piston-Cebu’s call remains, particularly for the government to scrap the PUV Modernization Program as it will eventually result in a total jeepney phaseout as they would be forced to give up their franchises and vehicles in exchange for buying what he called imported, expensive, non-sustainable and frail vehicles.The current modernization program must be replaced with a new program that is more responsive and balances the needs of the riding public and the transport sector, including the traditional PUJ operators and drivers.In a statement on Monday, LTFRB Chairman Guadiz said the agency would revoke the franchises of those who don’t meet the consolidation deadline.“We will revoke those franchises, and we will only be allowing those who have consolidated to ply the routes of Metro Manila,” Guadiz said in the statement.The Monday statement did not mention the routes outside Metro Manila and what would happen to operators who failed to meet the consolidation deadline in these parts.Last January, President Marcos extended the consolidation deadline for public utility vehicles to April 30.Under the PUV Modernization Program, the approval of the provisional authority for franchise is contingent upon jeepney drivers operating under a cooperative. The drivers would have to give up their individual franchises. A cooperative must have at least 10 members.It’s the eighth time that the consolidation deadline has been extended since 2017, Transportation Secretary Jaime Bautista said last January when the April 30 deadline was announced.At that time, only around 67 percent of PUVs, UV Express units, mini-buses and public utility buses in the country had undergone consolidation. The three-month extension to April aims to raise those figures to 85 percent. / with CTL

SEVERAL health experts in Central Visayas attribute the resurgence of vaccine-preventable diseases, such as “whooping cough,” to the low child immunization rate due to parental hesitancy towards vaccination.Local health experts also urged collaboration among authorities, communities and parents to address vaccine hesitancy and ensure widespread immunization to safeguard children’s health and prevent regional public health threats.This comes amid the resurgence of pertussis, or “whooping cough,” in Central Visayas, especially in Cebu. Whooping cough, caused by the bacterium Bordetella pertussis, is a fatal respiratory disease that has so far claimed the lives of six infants in Cebu.Low immunization rateDr. Eugenia Mercedes Cañal, regional epidemiologist of the Department of Health (DOH) 7, said in a news forum on March 26, 2024 that the region’s child immunization rate is only 60 percent, falling 35 percent short of the required herd immunity rate.Cañal noted that some parents seem to prioritize birthday celebrations over completing their children’s prescribed immunizations.In a separate interview, Ruff Vincent Valdevieso, DOH 7’s National Immunization Program coordinator, told SunStar Cebu that the region should at least have a 90 percent immunization rate to achieve herd immunity.Herd immunity refers to the indirect protection from an infectious disease that happens when a population is immune either through vaccination or immunity developed through previous infection.Cañal attributed the resurgence of vaccine-preventable diseases to low immunization rates resulting from parental vaccine hesitancy. She also highlighted the the spread of misinformation on social media platforms as another contributing factor.Dr. Daisy Villa, head of the Cebu City Health Department, also tied the parental vaccine hesitancy to the effects of the Dengvaxia scandal in 2017.“When we had (the issue on) Dengvaxia, of course, the parents were scared to have their children vaccinated,” she said during a virtual press conference on March 27, noting that the Covid-19 pandemic further instilled fear among parents.However, Villa clarified that unlike Dengvaxia, vaccination against whooping cough is already part of the existing routine vaccination for newborns.Dengvaxia was intended to prevent dengue fever. But controversy erupted in the Philippines when the vaccine was found to increase the risk of disease severity in people who had not had a previous dengue infection. This was revealed in the middle of a DOH-administered school-based vaccination program.Valdevieso emphasized the importance of taking advantage of the free vaccination services to boost children’s immunity against preventable diseases. These vaccines for children aged zero to one year are provided at government-run health facilities, including barangay health centers.In Cebu City, Villa said there are currently 5,000 single doses of the pentavalent vaccine against whooping cough available.The pentavalent DPT-HepB-HiB vaccine protects children from diphtheria, tetanus, Hepatitis B and Haemophilus influenzae type B. DOH 7 reported six infant deaths from whooping cough in Central Visayas: three from Cebu City, two from Mandaue City, and one from Lapu-Lapu City. Villa said the deaths included a one-month-old from Barangay Sawang Calero on Jan. 31, a 16-day-old from Barangay Talamban last Feb. 27, and a two-month-old from Barangay Tejero on Feb. 20. She clarified that Cebu City had only 12 cases, with the supposed 13th patient, an infant, from Surigao City in Mindanao, who provided a Cebu City address upon admission to the Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center for treatment. / KJF Who is the best Philippine soccer player? .

GOV. Gwendolyn Garcia has withheld declaring a state of calamity in Cebu Province to address the effects of the high heat index. In a press conference on Monday, April 8, 2024, Garcia said the Provincial Government is monitoring the situation across all local government units (LGUs) in its jurisdiction, including studying the crop yield and water supply.She assured farmers and fisherfolk that they are insured under the Philippine Crop Insurance Corp. “Damage to crops will be compensated accordingly,” Garcia said. “As of now, we will watch and study the situation very carefully. We will assist where we can assist and we will make a decision when we have to make a decision,” Garcia added.SunStar Cebu tried to secure data on crop production in the province, but the Provincial Agriculture Office would not provide it without the approval of the Office of the Governor. Localized problemThe governor pointed out that the water supply problem is evident only in Cebu City.She said the Province has a joint venture deal with a Manila-based water firm to extract water from the Luyang River in the northern town of Carman which is supplied to the Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD). On April 3, the MCWD reported a deficit in water production due to the El Niño phenomenon. This has resulted in consumers complaining about low water pressure or no water supply, particularly in elevated and interior areas. Garcia said she called all City and Municipal Risk Reduction and Management Offices under the Province’s jurisdiction to strengthen preventive measures to mitigate the effects of the drought, such as fire incidents.A grass fire broke out in the hinterlands of the southern town of Oslob late Saturday night, April 6, affecting up to 70 hectares of land in Barangays Poblacion, Cañang, Calumpang and Daan Lungsod.“To see to it that everyone is reminded of the risk of flammable materials that were normally, dili unta.

On Monday, April 8, LTFRB Chairman Teofilo Guadiz III called on jeepney operators and drivers to work on their consolidation into cooperatives before the April 30 deadline set by President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. passes, saying there will be no more extension of the deadline. “Nanulod sila og kooperatiba (sa) 2019 pa, pero ang problema kay naa lang gihapon sila nakasulod sa kooperatiba, pero wala pa sila ma-consolidate tungod nagtipun-og lang ang ilahang papel diha sa mga opisina sa cooperative,” Perez said. (They joined cooperatives in 2019 yet, but the problem is they are still in the cooperative, but they have not yet consolidated because the papers are just piling up in the office of the cooperatives.) He added that the Federation of Cebu Transport Cooperatives (FCTC) reported that it had consolidated 4,000 operators; however, upon their verification, they found the number to be only around 1,000. There were times the cooperatives asked for membership fees from the operators for them to be acknowledged as members and to be part of the consolidation, Perez said. “Problema kita sa pag-abot sa petsa (April) 30 sa atong mga operators nga dugay nang nisulod sa kooperatiba. Kinsay may pakisad-on ani? Ang operator pa ba gihapon sa panahon nga manakop na ang LTO (Land Transportation Office)? Ang LTFRB, ang operator ra gihapon nga wala nag-consolidate,” Perez said. (Our operators who have long joined cooperatives will have a problem when April 30 comes. Who will be considered at fault here? Will it still be the operator when the LTO begins making apprehensions? For the LTFRB, it will still be the operator, for not consolidating.)“Ang mga kooperatiba ug ang LTFRB man ang nalangay, ang nadugay. Mao unta toh gusto namo (ihangyo) nga ipagawas ang kamanduan ang LTFRB 7 nga dili panakpon ang mga nag-consolidate pa niadtong 2019 kay among tan-aw, dili sayop sa operator,” he added. (It’s the cooperatives and the LTFRB that have delayed things. That is why we wanted to request the release by LTFRB of an order not to apprehend those who attempted to consolidate since 2019 yet because the way we see it, it’s not the operators’ fault.)Once the April 30 deadline lapses, unconsolidated traditional jeepney operators will be designated as illegally operating their vehicles. Perez said there were times when these operators had to constantly follow up on and visit the offices of the cooperatives and the LTFRB 7, which forced the cooperatives and the LTFRB 7 to expedite the process, and yet many operators have not seen their consolidation, especially those who applied in 2019. He added that the LTFRB issued too late a memorandum allowing operators to withdraw their application from cooperatives with questionable processing time of application. Scrap modernizationOn the other hand, Perez said Piston-Cebu’s call remains, particularly for the government to scrap the PUV Modernization Program as it will eventually result in a total jeepney phaseout as they would be forced to give up their franchises and vehicles in exchange for buying what he called imported, expensive, non-sustainable and frail vehicles.The current modernization program must be replaced with a new program that is more responsive and balances the needs of the riding public and the transport sector, including the traditional PUJ operators and drivers.In a statement on Monday, LTFRB Chairman Guadiz said the agency would revoke the franchises of those who don’t meet the consolidation deadline.“We will revoke those franchises, and we will only be allowing those who have consolidated to ply the routes of Metro Manila,” Guadiz said in the statement.The Monday statement did not mention the routes outside Metro Manila and what would happen to operators who failed to meet the consolidation deadline in these parts.Last January, President Marcos extended the consolidation deadline for public utility vehicles to April 30.Under the PUV Modernization Program, the approval of the provisional authority for franchise is contingent upon jeepney drivers operating under a cooperative. The drivers would have to give up their individual franchises. A cooperative must have at least 10 members.It’s the eighth time that the consolidation deadline has been extended since 2017, Transportation Secretary Jaime Bautista said last January when the April 30 deadline was announced.At that time, only around 67 percent of PUVs, UV Express units, mini-buses and public utility buses in the country had undergone consolidation. The three-month extension to April aims to raise those figures to 85 percent. / with CTL
