On Feb 27, 2020, twelve (12) senior high school students of Holy Spirit National High School and 4 community health workers were beneficiaries of oral rehabilitation under the district-funded Ngiti Mo, Sagot Ko Program

The culminating activity of the Ngiti Mo, Sagot Ko Program of Rotary International District 3780 in partnership with the Quezon City Health Department District 2 Dental Division and the QC Schools Division was held on February 27, 2020 at the Judge Feliciano Belmonte High School in Bgy Holy Spirit. During the program, twelve (12) senior high school students of Holy Spirit National High School (HSNHS) received their free dentures. Also, four (4) community health workers from the Sta Catalina and Republic health centers in Barangay Holy Spirit were recipients of the oral rehabilitation program and got their free dentures.

This is the third year of the Ngiti Mo, Sagot Ko Program of RID 3780 that gives free oral health services package. When initially launched, the program had graduating high school students only as recipients. This year, a total of 800 were targeted as beneficiaries to include teaching and non-teaching staff of schools, as well as community health and barangay workers. The 16 above-cited beneficiaries were among a total of 133 students, teaching and nonteaching staff, and community health workers from District 2 QC. They were accompanied by HSNHS Interact Adviser Ma’am Beth Auxillo. The program was hosted by RC Bagong Sandigan.

RC Holy Spirit and District 3780 with other Rotary clubs and Department of Health, QC Government and volunteers are committed to eradicate all three Types of Poliovirus Mar 5 The Department of Health (DOH) and the Quezon City government, along with other cities in Metro Manila, implemented the ―Sabayang Patak Kontra Polio‖ last October 1427, 2019 and November 25 to December 8, 2019. That synchronized polio vaccination campaign covered the Poliovirus Type I and Type 3. RC Holy Spirit led by CSP Abet Sevilla strongly supported the campaign from its launching on October 14, 2019. DOH confirmed that the campaign has been successful. However, recent environment surveillance has detected a circulating vaccine-derived poliovirus type 2 (cVDPV2) case. No cases of wild poliovirus have been discovered, and the Philippines’ polio-free status is not at risk.

To ensure that no human transmission occurs, two (2) rounds of mass vaccination using the Monovalent Oral Polio Vaccine Type 2 (MOPV2) were conducted on January 27February 9, 2020 and February 24 - March 8, 2020. Once again, RCHS and partners joined the campaign, holding anti-polio vaccination activities on February 6 and March 5, 2020 at the St Scholastica Room of St Benedict Parish where 26 and 17 children, respectively, were vaccinated.

Polio Virus (PV) Type 2 has already been eradicated globally.

During the March 5 vaccination, a monitoring team from WHO led by Dr Lemma Dawit was present. PP Marcia Salvador coordinated the activity with DAHHA, St Benedict Parish and the Barangay Health Center. PP Ric Salvador was on hand to assist.

Oriental medical check up mission serves 80 indigent patients in Payatas on February 16, 2020

During his visit to the Philippines, FCP Eui Bong Jung OMD held a special Oriental medical check-up mission on February 16, 2020 in Payatas B, Quezon City. The mission gave medical relief to 80 patients, aged 2 months to 90 years old, living in the vicinity of the former Payatas dumpsite area. Most of the patients had cough and cold complaints. Three (3) patients received acupuncture treatment for body pains. Dr Bong was assisted by Holy Spirit Rotarians and Rotaractors, Korean

youth volunteers and staff from the Masaya CDP Center. PP Marcia Salvador served as interpreter between the patients and Dr Bong. Rotaractors Mitchee Estenzo and Rona Iglesias helped in dispensing the medicines and explaining the prescriptions to the patients. Also assisting were Dr Bong’s children Sion and Min Soo, together with their cousin Haeri and friend Jiwan. PP Angel Castro gave medicines, while PP Beth Sy sent multi-vitamins. Jerry Sy also brought assorted shoes and clothes as give-away to the patients’

families. PE Martin Marinas, PP JR Delgra and PP Ric Salvador were also on hand to assist. After the medical mission, Masaya CDP Center Director Pastor Hajong Song treated the volunteers to dinner at the Chicken Factory where Dr Bong had a chance to re-connect with Rotaractor Alyan Silos. Alyan graduated from the University of the Philippines, a 4-year scholar of Atty Park of RC Sae Gwangju D3710 and his colleagues. She now works at the Philippine Nuclear Research Institute.

Rotary History SERVICE ABOVE SELF

The Four-Way Test OF THE THINGS we think, say or do

1) Is it the TRUTH? 2) Is it FAIR to all concerned? 3) Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS? 4) Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?

Rotarian’s Pledge I am a Rotarian I will always uphold the TRUTH. I am a Rotarian I will always strive to be FAIR in all of my dealings with my fellowmen. I am a Rotarian I will always endeavor to build GOODWILL and UNDERSTANDING in my community, among my countrymen and people of all nations.

Experience a 360-degree early-20th-century office. When the Unity Building was set to be view of the historic repdemolished in 1989, they dislica of Room 711 On 23 February 1905, Paul Harris, Gustavus Loehr, Silvester Schiele, and Hiram Shorey gathered at Loehr’s office, Room 711 of the Unity Building in downtown Chicago, for what would later be known as the first Rotary club meeting. For the 1980 Rotary International Convention in Chicago, local Rotarians rented that same space and used period furnishings to re-create an

mantled Room 711 and arranged to rebuild it later at Rotary International World Headquarters just north of Chicago in Evanston, Illinois, USA. Today, guests who

tour the building can still visit

the room.

RI President-elect Holger Knaack’s theme for 2020-21, Rotary Opens Opportunities, asks Rotarians to create opportunities that strengthen their leadership, help put service ideas into action, and improve the lives of those in need.

Haiti At age 16, Odette Constant moved with her family to New York state from Port-au-Prince, the Haitian capital. After the devastating earthquake on 12 January 2010, Constant helped establish Haiti Health & Rehabilitation, an organization dedicated to instruction, health promotion, nutrition education, and community hygiene development. Beginning in late 2017, Constant focused her efforts on a makeshift Haitian orphanage, where she saw children in dire need. Constant relocated the children to a new house and took charge. The Rotary E-Club of Florida, which welcomed Constant as a member in 2019, supports the orphanage with marketing and promotional ideas.

Ghana Observing increased flooding caused by garbage-clogged drainage systems, the Rotaract Club of Ho got to work. Aided by funds and labor from Rotaract clubs in Ghana, Togo, and Uganda, and the Rotary Club of Lomé-Zénith in Togo, the Rotaractors installed 10 waste bins at key spots in the city last July. ―We had 130 volunteers participating,‖ says Prince Kotoko, president of the 27-member Ho club. The project was followed by a cleanup exercise on 28 September, when volunteers de-silted gutters. ―It was by far the largest cleanup to take place in the township, with close to 300 volunteers.‖

Finland Members of the Rotary Club of Helsinki International have mentored more than 110 immigrants and refugees, many of them from Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, and Syria, since 2017. The immigrants receive job training and assistance on résumé writing and adapting to a new culture. After completing the program, arranged through the Hanken School of Economics and affiliated with the Stockholm School of Economics executive education program, the graduates are given the option of three months of work training at Finnish companies, says

Canada After years of providing financial support for the B.C. Wildlife Park, members of the Rotary Club of Kamloops West, British Columbia, staked out territory of their own in the 106-acre preserve. Enhancing a habitat that is home to cougars, lynx, bobcats, Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep, arctic wolves, and snakes, the club inaugurated a pollinator garden designed to attract hummingbirds, butterflies, bees, and desirable bugs. During the District 5060 conference last May in Kamloops, 40 volunteers, including Rotarians, Rotaractors, and Rotary Youth Exchange participants from Districts 5040 and 5060, laid dirt and planted foxglove, tulips, lavender, woolly thyme, Russian sage, and coneflowers. ―Many plants were chosen for their attraction for pollinators and drought tolerance,‖ Sherry Chamberlain, the immediate past governor of District 5060 and a Kamloops West club member, says of the $2,300 project. The Rotary clubs of Kamloops and Kamloops Daybreak, also big supporters of the park, contributed funds and labor. ―Afterward, our two districts met at the site for a social to mix and mingle.‖ In October, club members returned to spread more dirt and gravel, and installed more plants, fencing, and a bench at a cost of about $3,800.

Sri Lanka To celebrate our canine companions, the Rotaract Club of Colombo Central held a dog walk and carnival that attracted 200 dogs and their owners in October. The festivities included a dog show and contests for best-dressed dog, best trick, and most popular pooch. Organizers circulated a petition to update Sri Lanka’s outdated Cruelty to Animals Act. Along with signatures of participants, the paw prints of the dogs were taken to indicate their participation and support toward amendment of the laws, according to club member Pramodha Weerasekara. Proposed amendments include prison time for causing the intentional death of an animal. The American Kennel Club recognizes 193 breeds of dogs. — BRAD WEBBER • This story originally appeared in the March 2020 issue of The Rotarian magazine.

Coronavirus is spreading panic. Here’s the science behind why. BY AMY MCKEEVER National Geographic PUBLISHED MARCH 17, 2020

Since the coronavirus began spreading across the world, we’ve learned a lot about the lengths to which people will go for a roll of toilet paper, a tube of hand sanitizer or a face mask. As the number of confirmed coronavirus cases increases and states and countries lock down large gatherings or shops to promote social distancing, these uncertainties are driving t h e s o - c a l l e d ― p a n i c - b u yi n g ‖ that’s emptying store shelves quicker than they can be restocked. Panic-buying supplies is one way humans have coped with uncertainty over epidemics since at least 1918 during the Spanish flu—when people in Baltimore raided drug stores for anything that would prevent the flu or relieve its symptoms—all the way up to the 2003 SARS outbreak. Anxiety is an evolutionary adaptation of the human brain, allowing us to plan for potential threats. On March 14, hundreds of California shoppers waited in line to enter a Costco store to prepare for the coronavirus pandemic.

“When you’re seeing extreme responses. It’s because people feel like their survival is threatened and they need to do something to feel like they’re in control,” explains Karestan Koenen,

professor of psychiatric epidemiology at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. But what exactly causes us to panic—and how can we keep our cool in a high-stress time like a pandemic? It depends on how different areas of the brain play along with each other. The evolution of fear and panic Human survival has depended on both fear and anxiety, requiring us to react immediately when we encountered a threat (think: the lion around the corner) as well as being able to mull over perceived threats (where are the lions tonight?)

often bad at it in different ways that cause us to overestimate or underestimate our personal risks. Sonia Bishop, an associate professor of psychology at the University of California Berkeley who researches how anxiety affects decision-making, says that’s particularly true now during the coronavirus pandemic. Inconsistent messaging from governments, the media, and public health authorities—such as all the varied recommendations on social distancing—fuels anxiety. ―We’re not used to living in situations where we have rapidly changing probabilities,‖ Bishop says.

How uncertainty can drive panic But if we’re deluged with information and messaging during this pandemic, why are some people hoarding toilet paper and hand sanitizer during this pandemic while others are dismissing the Shelves normally stocked with hand wipes, risks and packing hand sanitizer, and toilet paper sit empty at a into bars? Humans are notoriously bad at assessing risk in the face of uncertainty—and we’re

Soap & water remains one of the strongest weapons against infectious diseases, including novel coronavirus BY SARAH GIBBENS National Geographic PUBLISHED MARCH 18, 2020

stomach-busting norovirus, which can last for months on a surface. Enveloped viruses typically survive outside of a body for only a matter of days and are considered among the easiest to kill, because once their fragile exterior is broken down, they begin to degrade.

FOR NEARLY 5,000 years, humans have concocted cleaning products, yet the simple combination of soap and water remains one of the strongest weapons against infectious diseases, including the novel coronavirus. Even so, when outbreaks like COVID -19 occur and panic sets in, people rush to buy all sorts of chemical cleaners, many of which are unnecessary or ineffective against viruses. Foam hand sanitizers are disappearing from store shelves, even though many lack the necessary amount of alcohol - at least 60 percent by volume - to kill viruses. In countries hardest hit by the novel coronavirus, photos show crews in hazmat suits spraying bleach solutions along public sidewalks or inside office buildings. Experts are dubious, however, of whether that’s necessary to neutralize the spread of the coronavirus. To fully understand why health officials keep coming back to soap, it helps to know how the coronavirus exists outside the body, and what early research is saying about how long the virus can linger on common surfaces. In studies of influenza viruses, porous items like clothes and wood didn’t contain the virus for longer than four hours. That’s because these items pull moisture away from the virus and cause it to degrade. No matter what you touch, soap and water is the best way to remove any potential coronavirus from your hands before it can lead to infection. The coronavirus does not penetrate through skin because your outermost layer is slightly acidic, which prevents most pathogens from entering the body, explains Greatorex.

Soap works so effectively

because its chemistry pries open the coronavirus’s exterior envelope and cause it to degrade. These soap molecules then trap tiny fragments of the virus, which are washed away in water. Hand sanitizers work similarly by busting apart the proteins contained in a virus. The hard surfaces made for coronavirus The primary way people become infected with the coronavirus is from person-to-person transmission. This close contact in the form of a hug, handshake, or being in a packed public space enables infected individuals to easily spread their respiratory droplets, which are typically sneezed or coughed. But because respiratory droplets are heavy, they typically fall to the ground easily. Depending on where they land, they could persist on a surface before being touched by a hand that carries the virus to a nose or mouth, leading to infection. O n All viruses are bits of genetic code bundled inside a collection of lipids and proteins, which can include a fatbased casing known as a viral envelope. Destroying an enveloped virus takes less effort than their nonenveloped compatriots, such as the

A study published Tuesday in the New England Journal of Medicine looked at how long it can be detected on various materials. Dylan Morris, an evolutionary biologist at Princeton University and a study coauthor, says the mission was to investigate which surfaces found in medical settings might serve as a potential cesspool for infecting patients. On surfaces, they found SARS-CoV2 lasted for 24 hours on cardboard, two days on stainless steel, and three days on a type of hard plastic called polypropylene. The virus could only be detected for four hours on copper, a material that naturally breaks down bacteria and viruses. The study also revealed the novel coronavirus and its cousin SARS, which caused a major outbreak in 2002 and 2003, last on surfaces for similar amounts of time. (Find out how coronavirus spreads on a plane—and the safest place to sit.) People ordering goods online to avoid crowds may conceivably come into contact with contaminated cardboard, though the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention emphasizes that surfaces are not thought to be the primary way the virus is transmitted. Morris doesn’t want to speculate too much on everyday surfaces, but his general advice would be to carefully wash items and one’s own hands. 11


China's response shows how bold decision-making can contain coronavirus By Sean Fleming, Senior Writer, World Economic Forum Last updated 11 March 2020. A series of strict lockdowns restricted people’s movements. Social media apps were used to control how people moved around. New infection rates are now lower than in around 15 other countries. The first reports of an outbreak came on 31 December 2019. A week later it was confirmed a new coronavirus was spreading. At that point, there had been no deaths linked to the virus. But that soon changed. Within weeks, the number of fatalities was rising rapidly, and China became the epicentre of global coronavirus concerns. But now, with the World Health Organization calling coronavirus a pandemic, its falling rate of new infections could make the country a case study on how to bring COVID-19 under control. "China has done an incredible job at slowing the spread of the virus," explains David Aikman, Chief Representative Officer, World Economc Forum, China. "I'm impressed to see the delicate balancing act the Chinese government is doing between getting the economy growing again and protecting public health - and I believe many countries could learn from China's experience."

China's rate of new cases has fallen dramatically.

But, how did it move to contain the virus? Lockdown On 23 January, Wuhan and 15 other cities in Hubei province were placed under strict quarantine after the area was inundated with coronavirus infections. Healthcare workers were drafted in from all over China to help, and two hospitals were built in just over a week to care for the rising number of patients.

"The combination of top-down policies and bottom-up commitment from ordinary people to fight the spread of the virus is proving really powerful." China is now experiencing its lowest rates of COVID-19 infection since December, with fewer new cases than 15 other countries. Across the nation, people are getting back to work, and President Xi Jinping has visited Wuhan for the first time since the outbreak began.

On March 17, the Philippines placed the Island of Luzon under the state of Enhanced Community Quarantine to contain the spread of COVID-19 virus.
