🦠 LEPTOSPIROSIS: KNOW IT. PREVENT IT. STOP IT. 🦠

After heavy rains and flooding, stay alert! Leptospirosis can be acquired through contact with water or soil contaminated with the urine of infected animals, especially rats.

🛡️ Protect yourself:
• Avoid wading in floodwater when possible.
• Wear boots and protective gear when exposure is unavoidable.
• Keep wounds clean and covered.
• Practice proper hand and body hygiene.
• Seek medical attention promptly if symptoms develop after exposure.

💚 Your health matters. Stay safe, stay clean, and stay healthy!

DOH: MAGING HANDA SA EPEKTO NG HAZE SA KALUSUGAN!

Dahil sa hanging Habagat, umabot na sa ilang bahagi ng Luzon at Visayas ang usok mula sa forest fires sa Kalimantan, Indonesia.

Maaaring magdulot ang haze ng hirap sa paghinga, pag-ubo, pananakit ng dibdib, pangangati o pagluluha ng mga mata, at paglala ng mga sakit sa baga tulad ng hika. Dobleng pag-iingat ang kailangan para sa mga bata, matatanda, at mga may dati nang sakit sa baga o puso.

Habang nagpapatuloy ang banta ng haze, mag-suot ng mask kung lalabas ng bahay. Alamin ang lagay ng hangin sa inyong lugar at unahin ang kaligtasan. Maging handa sa banta ng Haze!

Up to 70% of the salt we eat is hidden in processed and packaged foods - such as sauces, canned food, cured meat, breads - not just the salt we add to our meals.

Choosing fresh, minimally processed foods can help reduce your salt intake and protect your heart.
