00:00Almost 70% of cases of meningococcal disease with a variant of zero group B in the Philippines have been reported in the last few years.

00:10This is the national news of JM Pineda from IBC.

00:16Almost 70% of cases of meningococcal disease with a variant of zero group B in the Philippines have been reported in the last few years.

00:23It is a type of infection in the blood from a bacterium that he calls Syria.

00:28Like COVID-19, it is also easy to get infected, especially if you have contracted this disease.

00:34Its common symptoms are small rashes or bulges that grow and become uvular.

00:40It also includes fever, nausea, and pain in the intestines.

00:44Children are often infected with it, where 50% or 1 in 2 people with it die.

00:51Health experts in the Philippines are warning against it.

00:54That's why they are reminding that if you have these symptoms, consult an expert immediately.

00:58They also added that it is better to get vaccinated against these diseases.

01:02But because we know that there are many infectious diseases that continue to circulate,

01:07and science has gotten to the point where protection can be something that is accessible,

01:16then our goal is really just to inform parents that there's something like this that you can access for your family's protection.

01:26And then that decision-making of when, where, how to access that particular formulation can be done with your healthcare professional.

01:36They also gave the importance of vaccines that can help reduce the number of people infected with infectious diseases.

01:44You don't know, I said, you're not the only one who will benefit from the vaccine.

01:49That's why you're getting vaccinated so that you won't transmit the disease that you may bring to others.

01:57Maybe you're not sick, right? Because you're immune or because you have a defense.

02:02But what you'll get is what will make you sick.

02:05They are assuring that these programs will continue until the National Immunization Program or NIP of the government

02:13will be part of the vaccination campaign against meningococcal disease.
