🦇 ANO ANG NIPAH VIRUS?

Ang Nipah virus ay isang mapanganib na zoonotic disease na maaaring manggaling sa mga hayop tulad ng fruit bats (paniki) at maipasa sa tao sa pamamagitan ng kontaminadong pagkain o person-to-person contact.

🔍 Mahalaga ang kaalaman at pag-iingat upang maiwasan ang pagkalat ng sakit.
✔️ Siguraduhing malinis ang pagkain
✔️ Iwasan ang kontaminadong prutas at inumin
✔️ Agarang magpatingin kung may sintomas

📣 Maging mapagmatyag. Ang tamang impormasyon ay susi sa kaligtasan ng lahat.
