Expiry date sa mga produkto, hugtan na sa FDA sunod tuig

TAGBILARAN CITY, December 22 (PIA)–Sugdan na sa Food and Drug Administration (FDA) sa sunod tuig ang paghugot sa mga manufacturer nga dili gihapon tigbutang og “expiration” o “expiry date” sa mga de lata ug uban pang produkto. Kini tungod kay kadaghanan pa gihapon sa mga produktong mapalit ilabi na sa mga supermarket mga “best before o consume before” lamang ang nakabutang nga marka imbes nga expiration date. Tuig 2014 pa gipagawas ang patakaran nga angay “expiration date” ang ibutang nga marka sa mga processed food ug dili “best before” lang. Bisan wala dayon gipatuman ang bag-ong patakaran, gihatagan sa FDA ang mga manufacturer og panahon aron mosunod sa maong patakaran. Gitataw sa FDA nga mahimo pa gihapong magbutang og “best before” apan angay adunay kaubang expiration date ang mga produkto.... read more

PRO 7 plans to put up gun-free tourist areas

PACKING more come-ons for Bohol as super-regions’ hot tourist destination, police regional office 7 (PRO 7) now dreams of converting Bohol tourist areas into ultimate gun-free zones. When realized, it should further elevate Bohol as destination status into a distinct wholesome family destination, shares PSSupt. Louie Oppus. The Boholano police officer showed mayors graphs showing going down of the crime trend in the Central Visayas in the last 5 years, and was quick to add that the success is due largely to the efforts of mayors. The achievement however seems not enough for Col Oppus who hinted that crime presence in a tourism destination is still not good. The Camp Sergio Osmena-based police operations officer then told mayors gathered during the League of Municipalities of the Philippines (LMP) Bohol Chapter meeting in Inabanga recently of the plan wich means zero tolerability for guns in designated areas. Briefing mayors on the peace and order situation here, Col. Oppus, who spoke for Police Regional Director Lane-o Neres added that the overall peace and order showing for Bohol is very appealing as he points out crimes going down as against the last three ratings. On the proposed plan, if pushed, peacekeeping authorities would deny entry or armed bodyguards of public officials and escorts of very important persons. “Only police officers in uniform are allowed to carry firearms in designated tourist areas,” he said as he elucidated on the plan to convert areas into safe zones. Once converted, even persons with permits to carry fire-arms outside residence should deposit their firearms at the tourist police desks or they would be denied entry, he...

141 Bohol children with tuberculosis

THERE is a danger more disastrous than swine flu and about 141 Boholano children have it. Dr. Cesar Tomas Lopez bared this as he reported to the mayors gathered during their bi-monthly meeting in Inabanga that about 141 Boholanos children having tuberculosis. With the needed urgency and while these children are under intensive treatment, Dr. Lopez, who also sits as the Sangguniang Panlalawigan Health Committee Chair told mayors to help local health authorities do something about it. He told them that an average treatment regimen covers 6 to 8 months and patients need to spend more or less P10,300 each to get the uninterrupted treatment going. Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious bacterial disease caused by mycobacterium tuberculosis, which mostly affects the lungs. While now considered curable, tuberculosis treatment regimen would need supervised full course of correct anti-TB medicines to assure continued regular, uninterrupted treatment. Recent cases of discontinued treatment has cause the surfacing of a new kind of bacteria now resistant to anti-TB medicines, so that a treatment system called Directly Observed Treatment Short-course (DOTS) is used where 90% of the cases are cured. World Health organizations said. The United States Government, through a project called Linking Initiatives and Networking to Control Tuberculosis (TB LINC), is partnering with Bohol through a Memorandum of Agreement signed by the governor, LMP and US ambassador Christie Kenney years back. With the TB LINC in Bohol, USAID, local officials and the LMP agree to co-share in the costs and partner in the project implementation. Dr. Lopez then reminded mayors of the MOA commitments they signed: to provide policy support especially on anti TB...
