Sinimulan na ng Department of Health (DOH) ang pamamahagi ng mga inodoro sa Baseco compound sa Maynila.

Ayon sa DOH, target nilang mapatayuan ng maayos na palikuran ang tinatayang 5,000 bahay sa Baseco na ang ilan ngayo'y umaasa sa dagat bilang instant kubeta.

Aminado ang mga opisyal ng isang barangay sa Baseco na malaking problema sa kalusugan ng mga residente ang kawalan ng palikuran sa mga bahay.

Isa si Renalyn Tarayo sa mga residenteng walang sariling palikuran sa bahay.

Nakikigamit lang siya ng kubeta sa bahay ng kamag-anak.

Ganito rin ang problema ni April Navarro na anim na taon nang nagtitiis sa arinola dumumi.

Sa tabing-dagat lang din aniya nagtatapon ng dumi si Navarro.

Ikinababahala ni Sen. Cynthia Villar, chairperson ng Senate committee on environment and natural resources, ang pagtatapon ng mga taga-Baseco ng kanilang dumi sa dagat.

Ayon kay Villar, bukod sa kalusugan ng mga residente, maaaring makaapekto rin sa kalidad ng isdang nahuhuli sa dagat doon ang pagtatapon ng dumi ng tao sa tubig.

Nasa P11 milyon ang pondong inilaan ng DOH sa proyektong magpatayo ng libo-libong palikuran.

Sinisimulan nang ilatag ang mga tubo mula sa palikuran na dederetso sa malaking septic tank.

Vatican reports on Pope Francis' health are encouraging, a leading Italian doctor said on Tuesday (February 18), after the Holy See said the pontiff had no fever, is eating, and can work.

The 88-year-old has been suffering from a respiratory infection for more than a week and was admitted to Rome's Gemelli hospital on February 14.

Massimo Andreoni, professor of infectious diseases at the University of Rome Tor Vergata and scientific director of the Italian Society of Infectious and Tropical Diseases, said that to have a better idea of the response to treatment, it will be necessary to wait 24 or 48 hours.

The Vatican said on Monday (February 17) that doctors had changed the pope's drug therapy for the second time during his hospital stay to tackle a "complex clinical situation."

They described it as a "polymicrobial infection of the respiratory tract."

A polymicrobial infection is caused by two or more micro-organisms, and can be caused by bacteria, viruses, or fungi.

Francis, who has been pontiff since 2013, has had influenza and other health problems several times over the past two years.

As a young adult he developed pleurisy and had part of one lung removed, and in recent times has been prone to lung infections.
