00:00Because of the continuous rain since yesterday,
00:02it is not possible to avoid the risk of leptospirosis that can be caused by flooding.
00:07The Department of Health issued an amnesty to avoid this disease.
00:13According to the DOH, the chance of getting leptospirosis is high
00:18if your flooding is frequent or continuous, even if you have a wound or not.
00:24In case this happens, the DOH recommends drinking 2 capsules of 100mg of doxycycline
00:31every week until it stops flooding.
00:34The doctor still needs a prescription to be able to get this medicine.
