00:00Six menacing weather disturbances have barreled through and battered mostly the entire Luzon mainland for a little over three weeks.

00:08A string of serious and killer calamities have worn down the mental health of the hard-hit victims

00:15and the army of rescuers, volunteers, and first responders keeping them safe, protected, and alive.

00:22BTV's Patrick Luzuz tells us more.

00:25Due to the effects of successive typhoons Nica, Ofel, and Pepitoc that have battered the country,

00:36around 1.1 million individuals have been affected.

00:40Despite the continuous distribution of aid, the DSWD assures that funds are sufficient,

00:46with a standby fund of P1 billion for food and non-food items ready to tap into.

00:53Which is stockpiled already all over the country and prepositioned so that in times of disasters like this,

01:02it is ready for the affected families of the country.

01:09Funds are being collected because we know that these disasters that we are experiencing are continuous.

01:18According to the Office of Civil Defense, the government is also assisting those experiencing typhoon fatigue

01:25through the help of health workers.

01:27Besides the typhoon victims, rescuers have also been affected.

01:32Our workers are constantly checking their health conditions so that they can maintain their health.

01:43Meanwhile, no typhoon is expected to form until next week,

01:47but PAGASA will immediately issue an advisory if there are any changes.

01:52However, the possibility remains high for typhoons to make landfall in the country until the end of the year

02:00due to the likely development of La Niña and the Northeast Monsoon or Amihan.

02:05It is almost time for onset.

02:08It will push down all tropical cyclones in the Pacific Oceans.

02:16From the People's Television Network, Patrick De Azuz, Balitang Pampansa.
