Leptospirosis alert
The Philippine Star
|August 09, 2025
EDITORIAL
-
A tropical storm could intensify into a typhoon this Sunday or Monday, according to state meteorologists. Health experts are reminding the public about the dangers of exposure to contaminated floodwaters that may cause leptospirosis.
In just the first five days of August, seven deaths attributed to leptospirosis have been recorded at the San Lazaro Hospital in Manila. SLH personnel said all seven had waded through the floods that forced the suspension of classes and government work for an entire week in Metro Manila and other parts of Luzon.
