Ang buwan ng Hunyo ay idineklarang National Dengue Awareness Month sa Pilipinas. Nilagdaan ito bilang Proclamation No. 1204 noong 1998.

Dahil ang Pilipinas ay kadalasang nakakaranas ng pag-ulan sa buwang ito, inaasahan ang pagtaas ng mga kaso ng dengue dahil sa mga naipong tubig-ulan na nagsisilbing pugad ng mga lamok na Aedes aegypti.

Upang maiwasan ang sakit, mariing ipinapaalala ng Department of Health (DOH) ang pagpapatupad ng 4S Strategy:

S - Search and destroy: Hanapin at sirain ang mga pinamumugaran ng lamok.

S - Self-protect: Protektahan ang sarili laban sa kagat ng lamok (hal. paggamit ng mosquito repellent at pagsusuot ng mahabang manggas).

S - Seek early consultation: Agad na magpatingin sa doktor kapag may sintomas ng dengue.

S - Support fogging: Suportahan ang fogging o pag-usok sa mga lugar na may clustering ng kaso.

Today is World Hypertension Day.
High blood pressure - or hypertension - often shows no warning signs, yet it increases the risk for heart disease, stroke, blindness, dementia, and other complications.

A simple blood pressure check can be life-saving.

Getting your blood pressure measured the right way helps ensure accurate results.
Incorrect positions can lead to incorrect readings.

✔ Sit with your back supported
✔ Legs uncrossed and feet flat on the floor
✔ Arm supported with the cuff at heart level
✔ Use correct cuff size
✔ Rest for at least 5 minutes before the reading
✔ Do not talk during or between measurements
✔ Avoid exercise, tea/coffee, and smoking for at least 30 minutes before reading

Small steps can make a big difference in protecting your health.

Sometimes you can go about your day for years, feeling completely fine - while high blood pressure quietly strains your heart, damages blood vessels and stresses your kidneys.

The good news: prevention and control are possible.

Early diagnosis, access to affordable high blood pressure medicines and healthy daily habits can greatly lower these risks.
