00:00This is just a few minutes, and it's already 2025.

00:13Hospitals across the country are codewiped for the increase in the number of cases of COVID-19.

00:20Live from Manila, we have a live report from Katrina Son.

00:23Katrina?

00:24Atom, how many hospitals are we visiting tonight to see their condition?

00:33Just like here at Dr. Jose Reyes Memorial Medical Center in Manila.

00:42As of 8 p.m., the number of victims of firecracker-related injuries

00:47in Dr. Jose Reyes Memorial Medical Center has reached 18.

00:51This is more than 43 percent compared to last year.

00:55The main cause of the firecracker injuries here at JRRMMC

01:00are the explosions of King Kong and Five Star.

01:03They are hoping that the number of people who will be executed here will increase by the end of the night.

01:08It's so alarming that the cases are mostly less than 18 years old,

01:13and those are the passive victims.

01:16It's really a must for parents to take care of their children.

01:21This is where the DOH first visited tonight.

01:24According to Usec Emeliza Perez Chong,

01:27the number of cases of firecrackers increased this year,

01:30which is why she urged everyone to be more careful.

01:34This is a challenge.

01:35It's really a campaign, information drive for all Filipinos,

01:40and all DOH hospitals are ready.

01:44Because this is beyond our control.

01:46Most of the patients are passive,

01:50so it's not a coincidence.

01:53It's really an accident, and we want everybody to be helped.

01:58At the Quirino Memorial Medical Center in Quezon City.

02:02I'm here at the treatment room of QMMC,

02:06and they are ready in case the number of patients who will be executed

02:11for firecracker-related injuries.

02:13In fact, all of their instruments have been sterilized.

02:18There are also eggs here for the WATUSI ingestion cases.

02:23In the entire month of December,

02:24only one case was brought here at QMMC.

02:27The patient is a victim of quitis,

02:29but they are still not camping.

02:32The strength of the residents and our consultants here at Quirino

02:38in preparing and in fact, we have code white.

02:47Atom, back here at JRRMMC.

02:50As of 11.05, the number of firecrackers in the hospital has increased to 24.

03:43seven were the victims of the fire from December 21.

03:46King Kong, Five Star, and Boga were among the many victims.

03:50Like a patient who was hit by a boga,

14:29For those who have travel goals for 2025,

14:31they can climb Mount Kabunyan in Bakun, Benguet.

14:35Aside from the length of the hike, which is 4 to 5 hours,

14:38it is steep in some parts,

14:40so it is challenging even for seasoned hikers.

14:43There is a part near the summit,

14:47the very steep side,

14:50and it was just located just right beside the cliff.

14:55It was just located just right beside the cliff.

14:58Like right on the edge.

15:00It was very dangerous.

15:03That's why safety is the priority of the guides.

15:07But Mount Kabunyan has the best view.

15:10From the top of the mountain,

15:12you can also see the whole of the town.

15:14As long as you have the eagerness to reach the top,

15:18then yeah, you should try.

15:21No matter how hard the hike is,

15:23as long as you enjoy the moment,

15:25it's really worth it.
