PAANYAYA: Nais ipabatid ng Bataan Provincial Health Office na ngayong buwan ng Agosto ay magkakaroon ng malawakang School-Based Immunization o ang ating "BakunaEskwela 2025".

Ito ay isasagawa sa mga pampublikong paaralan dito sa Bataan, kaya't hinihikayat ang lahat ng magulang ng mga estudyanteng nasa Grade 1, Grade 4, at Grade 7 na pabakunahan ang inyong mga anak.

Ang mga bakunang ipamamahagi ay mga bakuna laban sa Measles, Rubella, Tetanus, at Diphtheria para sa mga estudyanteng nasa Grade 1 at Grade 7; habang ang mga babaeng nasa Grade 4 naman ay maaaring pabakunahan laban sa HPV. Ito ay libre, ligtas, at epektibo bilang proteksyon ng inyong mga anak laban sa mga nabanggit na sakit.

Kaya't halina't makilahok at kunin ang pagkakataong ito para mabakunahan ng libre ang inyong mga anak. Tandaan, ang batang bakunado, protektado!

Para sa mas detalyadong impormasyon, makipag-ugnayan sa paaralang pinapasukan ng inyong mga anak o sa pinakamalapit na health center sa inyong lugar.

🧐🤔 Think Twice Tuesdays:
ID Myths You Need to Unlearn🤓☝️

❌ Myth: "Chickenpox is a one-time disease, di na pwedeng bumalik." 🐔

✅ Fact: Chickenpox may be once, but Shingles (Herpes Zoster) can strike anytime!
🔹 Varicella-zoster virus stays dormant in nerve cells after chickenpox.
🔹 Risk factors: Aging, stress, weakened immune system.
🔹 Shingles = Painful rash, nerve pain (postherpetic neuralgia), eye complications (herpes zoster ophthalmicus).

💉 Tip: Shingles vaccine (for 50+ y/o & immunocompromised) can prevent reactivation!

🚨 DENGUE ALERT! Let’s bust some myths. 🚨

❌ Myth: "Kapag matamis ang dugo mo, mas madalas kang makagat ng lamok!"
✅ Fact: Mosquitoes don’t care if you’re “sweet” 🍭—they’re attracted to body heat, carbon dioxide, and sweat (so yes, post-gym ka mas target nila).

❌ Myth: "Ang lamok, nangingitlog sa kanal at maruming tubig!"
✅ Fact: Dengue mosquitoes 🦟 love clean, stagnant water. Your uncovered water containers, plant saucers, and old tires are their favorite Airbnb. Time to declutter!

❌ Myth: "Walang lamok, kaya walang dengue risk!"
✅ Fact: Aedes mosquitoes are daytime biters 🏞️, so just because you don’t hear buzzing at night doesn’t mean you’re safe.

🔬 What to do?
✔ Apply insect repellent – your best anti-mosquito perfume
✔ Remove standing water – no breeding grounds, no dengue babies
✔ Wear light-colored clothing – mosquitoes love dark colors
✔ Seek medical help if you have sudden high fever, body pain, and rashes

💡 Let’s keep our communities dengue-free! Share this and help bust the myths! 🦠🚫

Play is the work of children 🥰

What do you see when a child is at play? Running, building, creating, pretending—these are the moments that catch our eye. But just beneath the surface, something much deeper is happening.

Play is where children develop adaptability, confidence, and problem-solving skills. It’s where they learn to navigate risk, build friendships, and trust their own ideas. It’s where their brains and bodies work together, shaping the skills they’ll carry for life.

The next time you watch a child play, remember—what’s visible is just the tip of the iceberg. There is so much happening underneath!

Philippine Society of Newborn Medicine Convention

My first convention after being a preterm mom. Madaming bagong natutunan, lubos na pasasalamat at lumaking malusog ang baby namin kahit pinanganak na preterm 🙏🥰
