Baguio logs second Mpox case

Baguio City
Baguio City /

BAGUIO CITY – The City Health Services Office reported the second case of Monkeypox or ‘mpox’ in Baguio City. It can be recalled that on January 17, the first case of mpox was detected from a 28-year-old man who underwent isolation and after a few days, he recovered and is now recovering. According to the CSHO, the second laboratory-confirmed case of Mpox was reported to the DOH on January 18 from a 22-year-old man, a resident of Baguio, who has no travel history outside the Philippines but had close contact two weeks before the onset of symptoms. They said the patient sought consultation at a private hospital, where specimens were taken from skin lesions and sent to the Research Institute for Tropical Medicine (RITM). PCR test results showed that the specimens tested positive for Monkeypox viral DNA, indicating that his infection was also caused by the less severe Clade II strain, the same as the first Mpox case in the city. The CHSO said the patient was discharged from the hospital on January 21 and went straight to home isolation. The patient has two identified close contacts who are asymptomatic but have been advised to home quarantine until February 6, while the other is advised to quarantine until February 24. Mayor Benjamin Magalong and City Health Officer Dr. Celia Flor Brillantes told the public that there is no reason to panic, however, they strongly reminded the public to practice routine health protocols such as frequent hand washing, wearing face masks, and physical distancing especially in crowded places. “There is no need to panic. We just need to wash our hands frequently, wear long sleeves or jackets, avoid exposure to people because Mpox can be acquired through the skin or through contaminated objects like bedding, towels, etc.” Dr. Brillantes stated. Since both cases were found to have a history of close intimate contact, the CHSO also emphasized that Mpox can be transmitted through close contact activities such as prolonged exposure, kissing, hugging, and close contact with an infected person. Flu-like symptoms appeared, with body aches, chills, and fatigue. A peculiar rash on the palms, face, arms, thorax, and back followed. With the upcoming large gatherings and celebrations in the city, such as Panagbenga, the CHSO reiterated that there is no cause for alarm because the virus is not transmitted like the COVID-19 virus, but still calls for the observation of precautionary measures to prevent spread and transmission. According to the Department of Health, a total of 52 cases of Mpox were recorded in various parts of the country in December 2024.

E-Governance bill moves closer to Senate approval

NCR
NCR /

The push to transform government services through digitalization, led by Senator Alan Peter Cayetano, is now just one step away from Senate approval after passing the Second Reading on Tuesday, January 21. During the plenary session, Cayetano, the bill’s sponsor, introduced his amendments to Senate Bill No. 2781, also known as the proposed “E-Governance Act,” along with the changes proposed by Minority Leader Senator Aquilino Pimentel III and Senator Sherwin Gatchalian. This development came less than a week after the bill passed the interpellation stage. The proposed E-Governance Act aims to streamline government processes and make them more transparent by institutionalizing a national framework for a unified digital government system. This framework, to be spearheaded by the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT), will guide agencies on the technical and informational standards they need to adopt for seamless digital integration. The framework will be based on a comprehensive master plan, which will be updated every three years to keep up with rapid technological advancements. At the heart of the plan is a secure network called the “Integrated Government Network” (IGN), which will connect all government websites and applications and allow different agencies to share data more efficiently. For ordinary Filipinos, these changes mean a smoother experience: no more long lines or switching between multiple apps to access government services. Cayetano, who chairs the Committee on Science and Technology, had earlier emphasized the importance of leveraging technology for nation-building. “It is not per se the solution to all of our problems, but it is a tool that, if used effectively and assigned properly to various agencies, can address many of our challenges today,” he said during last week’s plenary debate on the bill. He highlighted the lack of interoperability as one of the main issues with existing government digital platforms, a problem the E-Governance Act aims to solve. “This bill is actually a product of the experience of the DICT in the last few years. This is to emphasize and articulate what they need,” he said. The bill has received support from other senators, including Minority Floor Leader Pimentel, who thanked Cayetano for championing the proposal. “The times have changed. Talagang very critical na po itong DICT,” Pimentel said. The bill is now set to be approved on Third and Final Reading in upcoming sessions        

5,000 Novo Vizcayanos to benefit from P25-M TrPaTu fund

Region 2
Region 2 /

By Rachel Magday   Governor Atty. Jose V. Gambito is reinforcing his commitment to the marginalized communities of Nueva Vizcaya with the continuation of the TrPaTu (Trabaho para ti Umili) program, which also resonates with the Ilocano word “Taripato,” meaning “care” or “nurture.” This initiative, backed by a P25 million fund, aims to provide temporary employment to 5,000 disadvantaged and displaced workers across the province. Gambito expressed his dedication to uplifting the lives of his constituents, stating, “I want the people of Nueva Vizcaya to truly feel the support of their government as we work together to overcome poverty. This program is not just about financial assistance; it represents hope and opportunity for our community. The funds used for the TrPaTu program are sourced from the people themselves, embodying the principle of ‘kuarta ti umili para ti umili’—money of the people for the people. It’s about giving back to the community in ways that directly benefit them.” TrPaTu, envisioned by Governor Gambito, is a localized version of the national TUPAD program, specifically tailored to address the needs of workers who have lost their jobs or are struggling to find employment. The beneficiaries will have the opportunity to work for ten days, earning P500 per day, which totals P5,000. The work will involve community-based projects in their respective barangays, similar to the tasks in the TUPAD program of DOLE, such as cleaning and maintaining public spaces. Dolly Rose Minas, head of the Public Employment Service Division at the Governor’s Office, is leading the program’s implementation. “This year, we have increased our budget to P25 million, compared to last year’s P10 million, which successfully assisted 2,000 workers,” Minas shared. “Our goal is to extend this opportunity to more people, particularly those who have not yet experienced the benefits of TUPAD.” To join the program, applicants must provide documentation verifying their status as displaced workers, including certification from their Punong Barangay confirming their unemployment, underemployment, or low-income status. Priority will be given to those who have not previously taken part in TUPAD. The program is set to commence next month. The provincial government has also requested an exemption from the Commission on Elections to ensure the program’s smooth operation during the election period.
