(Our training in basic first aid, we might need it at any given day as well as our training for CPR, Automated External Defibrillator (AED) and fire safety training.)

While correspondent Mary Jo Maleriado expressed,”At least bago po tayo kumuha ng balita, makatulong muna tayo sa ating kapwa, partikular po dito sa Singapore.”

One of the 52 procession attendees in Quiapo getting some help from UNTV News & Rescue

MANILA, Philippines — UNTV News and Rescue has been on stand by since last night, ready to respond to emergency situations in the annual event in Quiapo.

Most of the people who sought medical attention were those who had foot injuries, experienced dizziness and high blood pressure from struggling through the congested crowd of devotees.

Many suffered injuries on their feet because most devotees walked bare foot.

The mid-day heat has caused a lot to experience blood pressure fluctuaction.

Dolly de Ocampo said, “Nagsimba po ako sa Quiapo church, eh, nasagi ako sa bakal yung mga naka-stand by na bakal dun… natakot ako bakal eh baka mga tetano.”

(I hit a metal in the church, I am afraid to get tetanus.)

Patient Jomar Bidonia said, “Na-ano ko tung kariton ng vendors. Sumusunod ako sa karo ng ano eh may vendor umakyat dun sa tulay.”

(I was hit by a food cart when I was following the procession.)

Despite an appeal from the authorities, there were still kids who got injured even though they were accompanied by guardians.

Rescue groups remind people who attained deep wounds on their feet, not to take it lightly and to immediately get an anti-tetanus vaccine from the nearest health center.

Dr. Christian Ramos of DOH said, “Pag dating sa bahay, huhugasan sasabunin then after sabunin, i-betadine siya o lagyan ng gamot.”

(Once they arrived in their house, wash the wound with soap and water and put some anti-bacterial.)

A total of 52 patients on Monday were able to be serviced by UNTV News and Rescue team at the Quiapo procession.
