   Ay, maiintindihan ga nila iyan, Doc? Sasabihin ko: "Mga nanay, may tigdas na sa kabilang bayan."

   Oh, you think they'll understand that, Doc? I'll say: "Mothers, there's measles in the next town already."

   Sige. Pangalawa, ang rumor: 'yung batang naospital pagkatapos bakunahan, dumaan sa AEFI investigation, at dengue pala, coincidental.

   Okay. Second, the rumor: the child who was hospitalized after his shot went through an AEFI investigation, and it turned out to be dengue, a coincidence.

   "Coincidental"... Sasabihin ko: "Nakasasama ga ang bakuna? Ang lamok ngani ang may sala."

   "Coincidental"... I'll say: "Did the vaccine do any harm? It was the mosquito all along."

   Pangatlo, cold chain: two to eight degrees mula Boac hanggang barangay, naka-vaccine carrier at ice pack.

   Third, the cold chain: two to eight degrees all the way from Boac to the barangays, in vaccine carriers with ice packs.

   Ang sasabihin ko: "Ang bakuna'y mas inaalagaan pa sa yelo kaysa sa isda ni Aling Biring sa palengke."

   Here's what I'll say: "The vaccine is kept on ice more carefully than Aling Biring's fish at the market."

   Ayos. Pang-apat: puwedeng lagnatin nang kaunti ang bata, mild AEFI lang, normal na immune response.

   Good. Fourth: the child might run a slight fever, just a mild AEFI, a normal immune response.

   B

   Iyan ang pinakamahirap, Doc. Kapag nilagnat ang bata, sa hilot ngani unang tatakbo ang nanay, hindi sa health center.

   That's the hardest part, Doc. When a child gets a fever, the first place a mother runs to is the hilot, not the health center.

   Kung ganoon, kausapin natin ang hilot. Community engagement, key opinion leader: siya ang magiging champion natin.

   Then let's talk to the hilot. Community engagement, key opinion leader: she'll be our champion.

    Si Lola Tasing baga? Ay, nanay ko iyon, Doc. Pero sa kaniya, iisa lang ang salitang tatalab.

    You mean Lola Tasing? Oh, she's my mother, Doc. But with her, only one word will work.

    Ano? Herd immunity? Ninety-five percent coverage?

    What? Herd immunity? Ninety-five percent coverage?

    B

    Ay, hindi. "Apo." Sabihin mong "Lola, para po sa mga apo ninyo," at siya na mismo ang magbabahay-bahay.

    Oh, no. "Apo," grandchild. Tell her, "Lola, it's for your grandchildren," and she'll go house to house herself.
