MANILA, Philippines -- The Department of Health (DOH) said the number of leptospirosis cases has tripled from last week, when the monsoon rains stopped.
The DOH expects the number of cases to rise.
From August 5 to August 22, leptospirosis has already claimed 34 lives.
"Kung nilalagnat ka, mas magandang magpa-check up na. Hindi sa nananakot kami, pero nakamamatay ito,” DOH spokesperson Dr. Eric Tayag said. http://www.abs-cbnnews.com/nation/08/25/12/doh-hospitals-overflowing-lepto-cases
