Iwasan ang nakamamatay na rabies! 🐕😿

Ang rabies ay isang nakamamatay na sakit mula sa virus na naipapasa sa kagat, kalmot at laway ng hayop. Protektahan ang sarili at pamilya:

✔ Pabakunahan ang alagang hayop taun-taon 🩹🐶🐱
✔ Huwag hayaang gumala ang alaga sa kalsada 🚷
✔ Iwasang lumapit sa di-kilalang hayop ⚠️🐾
✔ Turuan ang bata na huwag harutin ang mga alagang hayop 👦❌🐕

💉 Bakuna para sa alaga, proteksyon para sa lahat! 💉

☎️ Magpakonsulta agad sa pinakamalapit na health center kapag nakaranas ng sintomas ng Dengue! 🤳

Ang malubhang Dengue ay nakamamatay. Ito ay dala ng lamok na Aedes aegypti 🦟 na nagpaparami sa mga naipong tubig at maruruming lugar.

Ugaliing maglinis ng paligid para walang pamugaran ang lamok! Kung walang lamok, walang dengue!
