00:00 Like the MMDA and traffic enforcers in Pangasinan, there is a hit-stroke break.
00:06 Some people have a bad feeling about them because it's too hot.
00:11 We have live news. Russell Simorio of GMA Regional TV, 1 North Central Luzon. Russell.
00:22 As of 7am, the heat index in Pangasinan is at 33 degrees Celsius. The health authority is expecting a rise in the rate of heat stroke and other diseases that are caused by the increasing heat of the weather.
00:36 Yesterday, the 38-year-old traffic enforcer, Maximo Joseph of Kalasyao, Pangasinan, was exposed to the sun. He said he has a skin disease and he is often dizzy.
00:50 It's too hot, sir. That's why we need to go.
00:54 This is also what the traffic enforcer, Jesse, experienced.
00:58 I'm a bit dizzy. That's why we need to go. We also need water.
01:03 The Public Order and Safety Office of POSO said that they have a heat stroke break, or the enforcers will give a "pahintulot" to go from 2pm to 3.30pm, when the weather is hot.
01:18 The Center for Health Development, Ilocos, is expecting cases of heat exhaustion or heat stroke, which is now high in the heat index or body heat.
01:29 The FAST Lane for victims of heat stroke and heat exhaustion has been opened to public hospitals.
01:36 Usually, when there is a heat stroke, they are directed to the emergency room where the patients with heat stroke are treated quickly.
01:50 The CHD assured that the supply of medicines in hospitals and barangay health centers is sufficient.
01:56 Usually, heat stroke patients need supportive medication.
02:03 Some of the symptoms of heat stroke are severe headache, dizziness, severe sweating, and shortness of breath.
02:12 According to the Public Order and Safety Office, the heat stroke break is only effective when there is no traffic.
02:23 This means that the traffic enforcers will still be exposed to the sun when they see that there is a heavy traffic.
