AnaKalusugan Party-list led facemask drives in several communities in Batangas affected by volcanic smog (vog).<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
According to AnaKalusugan Party-list Rep. Ray T. Reyes, they had face mask donation operations in the towns of Nasugbu, Tuy, and Balayan.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
“Anakalusugan’s advocacy has always been centered around bringing healthcare closer to the people. Apart from our regular medical and dental missions, we make it a point to always help affected residents whenever health emergencies arise,” Reyes said.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Reyes also appealed to the Department of Health to distribute N95 face masks and other protective equipment to LGUs and affected communities as a precaution to future vog incidence.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
“Let us be proactive. Kahit na humupa na kahit papaano ang vog sa paligid ng bulkan, kailangan po natin maging handa lalo na’t nasa alert level one pa rin ang Taal,” the lawmaker said.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
According to the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, vog from Taal volcano had already cleared thanks to the recent rains and thunderstorms.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
However, Philippine Volcanology and Seismology Administration director Teresito Bacolcol raised the likelihood of vog recurrence as Taal Volcano continues to spew sulfur dioxide emissions, with plumes reaching 1,800 meters high.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Taal Volcano remains under Alert Level 1, which means that phreatic explosions, volcanic earthquakes, minor ashfall and lethal accumulations of volcanic gas may still occur.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
