Naging matagumpay ang ginanap na NBS@30 Community Activity na may temang "Newborn Screening ang Karamay sa Healthy na Buhay!" bilang pagdiriwang sa ika-30 taong anibersaryo ng Newborn Screening (NBS) sa Pilipinas. Ang inisyatibong ito ay naisakatuparan sa pakikipagtulungan ng Newborn Screening Center-NIH (NSC-NIH), DOH Metro Manila Center for Health Development (DOH-MMCHD), LGU, at Volunteer Youth Leaders for Health (VYLH).

Maraming mga buntis, mga bagong panganak na ina, mga mag-asawang nagpaplanong magpamilya, at iba pang miyembro ng komunidad ang nakiisa at natuto. Ilan sa mga naging tampok sa programa ay ang sesyon sa pagtuturo sa kahalagahan at benepisyo ng Newborn Screening para sa mga sanggol, masayang pagbabahagi ng adbokasiya ng VYLH at pagbibigay-alam sa mga mahahalagang serbisyo ng lokal na health centers para sa ina at anak.

Huwag nating kalilimutang alamin at ipagawa ang newborn screening sa ating mga newborn babies. Magtanong sa inyong pinakamalapit na health center o ospital para sa karagdagang impormasyon ukol sa serbisyong ito. Dahil ang newborn screening, ay isa sa karamay sa healthy na buhay ni baby! โค๏ธ๐Ÿ‘ถ

IN PHOTOS: What began in 1996 as a small initiative in selected hospitals, the Philippine Newborn Screening (NBS) Program has evolved into one of the countryโ€™s most successful population-based health programs, sustained by decades of collaboration among healthcare workers, institutions, and government partners.

A thanksgiving reunion brought together pioneering coordinators, clinicians, and advocates of the NBS honoring the first 24 pilot hospitals that laid the foundation of what is now a nationwide public health system reaching millions of Filipino newborns.

NSC-NIH joins the global community in celebrating International Thalassaemia Day!

In the Philippines, many remain unaware that they carry the Thalassaemia gene or live without a proper diagnosis until complications arise.

Today, we turn the spotlight on every "unseen" individual. Letโ€™s bridge the gap in diagnosis and care so that no Filipino living with thalassaemia is left behind.
