🦠 “Prepared Today, Protected Tomorrow: Strengthening Our Fight Against Infectious Diseases” 🌍

The COVID-19 pandemic reminded us of the importance of preparedness in facing health crises. The Department of Health’s Emerging and Re-Emerging Infectious Disease Program (EREID) is dedicated to ensuring a resilient health system capable of preventing, detecting, and responding to public health threats caused by infectious diseases.

📌 Our Vision A health system that is resilient, capable of combating epidemics and pandemics.

📌 Our Mission To provide an integrated, responsive, and collaborative health system for a healthy and bio-secure nation.

Key Initiatives: ✅ Development of Rapid Response Teams (RRTs) ✅ Access to PhilHealth benefit packages for diseases like leptospirosis, SARS, and MERS-CoV ✅ Strengthened inter-agency coordination through policies like:

AO No. 0010-BSA: Creating the Philippine Inter-Agency Committee on Zoonosis

Let’s work together to reduce the impact of infectious diseases and ensure a healthier Philippines! 💪
