00:14The local government of Quezon City approved the delivery of dengue test kits to health centers and hospitals
00:20of children with dengue symptoms.

00:31most of the people infected with dengue are 5 to 17 years old.

00:44And because the outbreak has been declared in the city,
00:47its health centers are open every Saturday and Sunday.
00:51The parents are asking their children not to go to a doctor to assess if this is dengue or not,
01:04or to go to the nearest health center.
01:07To completely eradicate dengue, the city was ordered to help in dengue prevention and control.
01:15That is why the barangays will continue their dengue control activities while the schools will form Brigada 7.
01:25According to the QCLGU, residents should be alone in the clean-up drives in the communities.
01:32We will clean up and cooperate with the barangays.
01:36When it's time to clean up, you need to take out the garbage from the house that can cause pollution if it's polluted.
01:50If there's no pollution, there's no dengue.
