NewsTranscript
00:00Customers and waitresses ran outside after hearing a gunshot inside a restaurant in Lasam, Cagayan.
00:13Three people were inside the restaurant.
00:15According to the police, the two were drinking with the victims when the suspect punched them and pulled out a gun.
00:23The suspect tried to escape with the victim, but he was also shot.
00:27Based on the investigation, the victims were treated.
00:31The suspect is still being tortured.
00:35PhilHealth is recommending to President Bongbong Marcos to lower the member contribution.
00:40PhilHealth said that the amount of funds they will receive will be enough
00:44despite the question of the Senators in their plan to reimburse the government with a subsidy of almost Php90 billion.
00:52We have a report from Ma'am Gonzalez.
00:57PhilHealth has a monthly premium of 5%.
01:00For example, if a direct contributor earns Php10,000 a month,
01:04their monthly contribution is Php500.
01:07PhilHealth said that they will recommend to President Marcos to lower the contribution of the members.
01:13PhilHealth said during the Senate Committee on Health hearing that they still have Php500 billion in funds.
01:18Before this, the Senators recommended to lower the contribution of PhilHealth to almost Php90 billion,
01:23which was not used as a subsidy from the government.
01:26Why do we need to reimburse Php90 billion?
01:28Why are the benefit packages of PhilHealth still not enough and there are still out-of-pocket patients?
01:34Before you raise funds, think about what can be used for that money.
01:40PhilHealth explained that it is legal to raise funds to the national government.
01:44It was also not taken from the contribution of the members.
01:46It doesn't mean that because Php90 billion is gone, PhilHealth will lose money.
01:51Why don't you use your funds to the poor, to the patients who are in need,
01:56so that your money will not be taken away by the Department of Finance?
02:03We are very, very aggressively enhancing all of our benefit packages.
02:08In fact, we did an initial 30% across the board last February 14.
02:14And we are already in the process of doing another round of 30%.
02:19So it's really continuous.
02:21According to Finance Secretary Ralph Recto,
02:23the Governance Commission for GOCCs and Office of the Government Corporate Council, or OGCC,
02:29agreed that it is legal and does not include the prohibition of raising funds in accordance with the Universal Health Care Act.
02:35PhilHealth members will also receive benefits.
02:39To fund the ad program appropriations, Congress determined that there is another way,
02:47aside from new taxes as well as debts.
02:51And this is through the collection of the sleeping and unused money of the GOCCs,
03:00which we are still paying interest.
03:03But some doctors are still talking about not reducing the funds for health care.
03:08We are the ones who are getting close to them, we are the ones who are by their side in their treatment.
03:17Excuse me.
03:19PhilHealth's assistance is not enough.
03:23Let's not call it savings because this is our debt to them.
03:30This should not be taken away.
03:32Mav Gonzalez reporting for GMA Integrated News.
03:36Ten people were injured after a passenger jeep collided with five vehicles in Manila.
03:42In Albay, a rider who was hit by a bus was critical.
03:46Beya Pinlac has the report.
03:51The motorcycle ran slowly in Ligao City, Albay.
03:54Later, it was hit by a passenger bus.
03:57The rider who suffered head injuries was critical.
04:00The bus driver was held by the authorities.
04:04The rider was hit by a passing child in Infanta Quezon.
04:07A three-year-old child was injured.
04:10The impact was severe.
04:11The rider ran away but was able to recover in the barangay.
04:15The child is still recovering.
04:19This woman fell from the e-trike while a man was hit by a jeep in Manila.
04:25Five vehicles were hit by a passenger jeep after it lost its brakes.
04:30Ten people were injured.
04:31Six of them were rushed to the hospital.
04:33The jeepney driver was held by the authorities.
04:37Beya Pinlac reporting for GMA Integrated News.
04:42The Philippine National Police denied the allegations of Vice President Sara Duterte of political harassment.
04:48The reduction of 75 police officers in her security detail.
04:53The PNP was angry.
04:54The police were transferred to increase the number of police officers in Metro Manila.
05:00It is said that VP Sara still has 31 PNP security details.
05:06It is also not true what VP Sara said.
05:09That there are police officers who went to her place to find out which house she lives in.
05:16VP Sara still has no answer to that.
05:18But she said in a Facebook post that her family is safe.
05:23Her only wish is not to allow any violence to them, personally or on the internet.
05:33The Department of Agriculture plans to distribute vaccines against African Swine Fever next month.
05:40This is free to those affected by ASF.
05:43My report, Darlene Cai.
05:48The pork that Elizabeth is selling is already scarce.
05:51But it is still not enough.
05:53In Megacue Market in Quezon City, 35 pesos per kilo of pork is increased compared to the beginning of the year.
06:00Of course, it is better to reduce the price of pork so that people can afford it.
06:04According to the latest data of the Philippine Statistics Authority,
06:07the increase in the price of pork in June is almost double compared to last month.
06:12The reason?
06:13The increase in cases of African Swine Fever or ASF, according to the National Economic and Development Authority or NEDA.
06:19That is why vaccines against ASF are important.
06:21The Department of Agriculture plans to distribute them this August until September.
06:25The government will be able to get the first batch of 600,000 doses of vaccines.
06:29The controlled rollout is set for the third quarter of 2024.
06:34Prioritizing eligible commercial farms, semi-commercial enterprises, and clustered backyard farms.
06:43That are very important.
06:44Under strict buy supervision, this initial rollout is strictly voluntarily.
06:49The budget for vaccination is 350 million pesos.
06:52The places that have active cases of ASF will be prioritized.
06:55According to the Bureau of Animal Industry, 18 provinces have active cases of ASF.
07:00If the vaccine is really effective, people will now invest again.
07:05There's a good chance that the price of pork will go down.
07:07The real effects of that will be known by February next year.
07:11The AVAC that was registered under monitored release has undergone clinical trials.
07:16It was started last year.
07:19They've been applying for almost two years.
07:22It has been proven 100% safe in efficacious.
07:25Darlene Cai reporting for GMA Integrated News.
07:29The advertising agency that replaced the Hill, Puyat Avenue signage with Hill Tulog did not apologize.
07:36It was said that they acknowledge the issues raised by their ad campaign.
07:41Although they obtained a permit and clearance for this, they immediately denied the ad campaign.
07:49Or they immediately stopped the ad campaign.
07:51They also brought their apology to the Puyat family.
07:56At the same time, they clearly respect the former Senate President, Hill Puyat.
08:02Filipinos have the lowest number of sleepless nights in Southeast Asia and the fourth in the world.
08:10But that should not be taken for granted, according to the expert,
08:13the effect on the health of the former Puyat family in the Fifth Track Report by Katrina Son.
08:20In five hours of sleep, 26-year-old Jason Sulutan is already happy.
08:25Aside from being able to go home from work late.

09:05He has to do the laundry.
09:07He has to do the laundry.
09:10When he gets home from work, he has a housework to do.
09:13Because he's the only one who lives in Manila.
09:30And the fourth country in the world that lacks sleep.
09:33According to the President of the Philippine Society of Sleep Medicine,
09:37digitalization and globalization are the reasons why Filipinos lack sleep.
09:43That includes using social media or mobile phones while resting
09:47and working on the graveyard shift.
09:50But sleep should not be neglected.
09:52For adults, they should sleep for seven to nine hours every night.
09:56For seniors, they need six to eight hours.
10:00If a person is always awake, it affects their weight.
10:05Obesity, cardiovascular disease, heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke, heart attack.
10:12The chances of developing diabetes and infection also increase.
10:17For those who can't sleep at night, they need to have a sleep schedule.
10:21Make sure the room is clean, quiet, and dark.
10:26And there should be a downtime before going to sleep.
10:30This means preparing to sleep through a routine like taking a bath.
10:35There should also be no gadgets one hour before going to sleep.
10:38Katrina Son reporting for GMA Integrated News.
