00:00Rabies is also a problem in the country. According to the Department of Health, 89 cases of rabies have been reported from January to March this year.
00:09In addition, those who are getting vaccinated against rabies in San Lazaro Hospital are now lacking in vaccine supply.
00:15Here is the first news, Macky Pulido.
00:18Six sickens in the outpatient department of San Lazaro Hospital. Patients are enduring the heat as they line up to get vaccinated against rabies.
00:31Others are already sitting on benches outside.
00:34Even in this situation, Gina did not complain that she accompanied her child to get vaccinated against rabies.
00:40She was asked to go here because there is no anti-rabies vaccine in the health center or public hospital in their area.
00:45When we went to the hospital, San Lazaro really recommended it to us. We are running out of medicine. There is no anti-rabies vaccine for us.
00:57This is also the situation in the area of Nashaira. There are big expenses in the private clinic. So for free, they went to San Lazaro.
01:05Life is hard now. It's better to get tested here in Manila.
01:13San Lazaro Hospital is now arranging a place inside the hospital where the patients who have been vaccinated against rabies will be transferred so that they will not endure the heat while waiting.
01:24They are also talking to the patients to follow the schedule given to them so that they will not have to wait for a long time and so that they will not bother others.
01:32According to the spokesperson of Lungsod of Manila, their anti-rabies vaccination for rabies and rabies is not stopping.
01:39If there is a lack of vaccine, they are ready for it.
01:43They are also meeting the budget requirements of other departments.
01:46An official of a city health department explained that they don't want to introduce the supply of anti-rabies vaccine to many local governments now.
01:54While there is no supply, the patients are being referred to San Lazaro for free.
01:59The Department of Health is no longer supplying them like before because the Mandana's ruling is now in full implementation,
02:05where the local governments should respond to many services like anti-rabies vaccine.
02:11But because procurement or the purchase of anti-rabies vaccine is still in process,
02:16the local government needs to pass a public bidding that is in line with the supply.
02:21Here is the first news. Macky Pulido for GMA Integrated News.
