Kathleen Page, MD, associate professor of medicine and pediatrician at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, answers common vaccine questions that parents might have for 5 to 11 year olds.

The developments in technology have advanced healthcare: new medicines and treatment modalities, instruments, and social media support for healthcare will continue to transform the way diseases are managed, and utilizing these will be necessary to meet the country’s objective to beat TB by 2030. Filipinos aged 10–64 years old use the internet more often for social media than research and email and spend more than 4 hours on it each day, making us the global leader in time spent using social media. Despite this, only a small portion of social media users express interest in page groups dedicated to patient education on tuberculosis or any disease or medical condition.

COVID and Children

Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), also known as Doctors Without Borders, is an international, medical humanitarian organization that delivers emergency aid to those who need it most. MSF operates in more than 70 countries worldwide, including the Philippines. In its projects around the world, MSF is working to respond to COVID-19. But in the midst of all the quarantine guidelines and case counts, how is this pandemic affecting children? How do you explain COVID-19 to a child? How do you make them understand that they can’t play outside, or go to school, because many people are sick with COVID-19? What do you say to them if a relative or friend tests positive for COVID-19? These are some of the questions we will discuss in “COVID and Children: An open forum.” “COVID and Children” will also feature the launch of a special project: a children’s activity book on COVID-19, titled What Can You Do About COVID-19?
