00:10 Jonathan.
00:11 Emil, the amount of medicines for leptospirosis and other diseases
00:18 in Ibao Este in Calumpit is running out.
00:21 These floods in Bulacan are possible to reach
00:24 for a week before it lands, if it doesn't rain,
00:27 said Governor Daniel Fernando.
00:29 [horn honking]
00:30 Rosemary is wearing socks when she's drowning.
00:36 Her foot is hurting because of the leptospirosis.
00:40 We have small stones that stick to the tip of our fingers.
00:44 It hurts.
00:45 She's coughing and sneezing.
00:47 She can't stop herself from taking her medicine.
00:49 Even her other neighbors are suffering from leptospirosis
00:52 because of the flooding that happened a week ago.
00:55 I'm getting hot at night.
00:57 I'm just using an electric fan.
00:59 And I'm drinking alcohol.
01:01 Isn't it painful?
01:02 It's too much.
01:03 If possible, we would like to have some medicine.
01:07 We don't only have leptospirosis, there are many others.
01:10 In the relocation of the site, there are also many leptospirosis patients.
01:13 The barangay called for medicine
01:15 because they ran out of medicine against leptospirosis and leptospirosis.
01:20 But how can this be avoided?
01:22 For example, we can't avoid flooding.
01:27 You need to dry your feet immediately after you get home.
01:31 Some people say that they need to rest first,
01:34 they can't take a bath right away.
01:38 That's wrong.
01:39 You need to dry your feet immediately.
01:42 Sometimes, they add apple cider vinegar.
01:45 These things are more dangerous.
01:50 The skin in the middle of the toes is more macerated.
01:53 And that's what causes more severe infection.
01:57 Until this afternoon, there were 10 more flooding in Bulacan.
02:02 In San Miguel, Calumpit, the water is still low.
02:06 Even the evacuation center is flooded.
02:08 The people who have a second home, like Cecilia's mother,
02:12 just left the house to get relief goods.
02:15 It's a good thing that there's free food
02:17 because the flood has already affected her life.
02:20 My computer shop was flooded.
02:24 My son was flooded by the river.
02:27 The computers were completely submerged.
02:31 Now, the flood is slowly being solved.
02:38 Our beloved President, if the flood solution can be done here in San Miguel,
02:46 I hope that action can be taken.
02:49 According to Bulacan Governor Daniel Fernando,
02:52 President Bongbong Marcos is expected to visit Bulacan on Monday.
02:56 He will lay the long-term solution to the flood
02:59 that they have already presented to the Congress and the private sector.
03:03 This is the construction of an additional dam and other water tanks
03:07 mass dredging or irrigation of large rivers like the Pampanga River,
03:11 the development of the flood management master plan,
03:14 and the construction of a mega-dike that will stretch from Bataan to Cavite.
03:20 We asked for help, maybe they can build this mega-dike.
03:24 The mega-dike, which can be converted into a coastal road.
03:31 It can be a toll gate, a road, or a roadway.
03:35 It's like the road in South Korea.
03:37 Currently, more than half a billion pesos have been spent on agriculture and infrastructure in Bulacan.
03:43 To the captains who are looking for medicine for leptospirosis and other diseases,
03:51 Governor Fernando said that they still have supplies in Capitolio.
03:54 They will go to the health centers in the municipalities or in Capitolio.
03:58 Emil.
