NextGen Day

In preparation for the start of courses on August 22, the Department of Health-Center for Health Development (DOH-CHD) Calabarzon (Cavite, Laguna Batangas, Rizal, Quezon) inaugurated a program on Tuesday in Laguna.

At the school-based launch of “Para sa Henerasyong Healthy, Balik Sigla sa Pagbalik Eskwela” at San Ramon Elementary School in Calamba City, DOH-Calabarzon Assistant Regional Director Leda Hernandez said, “It is important that we ensure that students return to school safely, just like the teachers, and we are passionately committed to this campaign of making sure that the schools are ready and dengue-free.”

The campaign focused on the school-based Dengue Awareness Campaign with the 4S strategy (Search and destroy breeding places, Secure self-protection, seek early consultation, and Support fogging/spraying in hotspot areas), the distribution of anti-dengue and other vector control supplies, the ceremonial installation of Olyset nets, and the mini gallery showcasing the seven healthy habits, the Covid-19 vaccination, and the DOH’s “Konsultayo” campaigns.

According to information from the Regional Epidemiology and Surveillance Unit, a total of 10,833 dengue cases and 18 fatalities have been reported in Calabarzon between January 1 and August 13, 2022.

In comparison to the 5,054 instances reported during the same time period previous year, the number is up 114 percent. The three provinces with the most number of cases are Cavite (1,827), Rizal (2,328), and Laguna (3,414).

In addition to the activity’s centerpiece, “Para sa Henerasyong Healthy, Balik Sigla sa Pagbalik Eskwela,” the DOH-Calabarzon also introduced the “Sa Booster Pinaslakas” campaign for school-based immunization.

Hernandez observed the ceremonial immunization for students aged 5 to 11 along with the representatives from the Department of Education, the City of Calamba, and private groups.
