Good-quality surgical masks have 3 layers: 1) an outer COLORED layer w/c repels water, blood & body fluids 2) a middle layer w/c FILTERS bacteria 3) an inner WHITE layer w/c absorbs water, sweat & saliva DON'T believe in the INTERNET HOAX that there are 2 ways to wearing a mask.

One of my cancer patients w/ a complete response to chemo died of COVID. Desaturated for >24 hrs in a small hospital w/ inadequate facilities. Tried many tertiary hospitals all around but no vacancy. When there was finally a slot, the patient died just before the ambulance came.

Survived cancer, only to die of COVID. The agony of trying to catch one's breath must have been worse than the previous cancer symptoms. How many more people will continue to become victims of our broken healthcare system?

@theskinsensei there's actually logic behind why the colored layer should be outside. the COLORED layer is FLUID-REPELLENT while the WHITE layer is ABSORBENT. gusto ba natin na ung absorbent layer ang nasa labas? pag natalsikan ka ng laway, kakapit na siya. so, colored layer out for protection.

We should teach our patients how to properly check supplement labels. We should also advise them to beware of products that don't properly disclose their contents (ex: "secret formula", "secret recipe", "proprietary blend") as these unknown substances can be potentially harmful.

Browsing Twitter trends. Clicked on New Zealand, and saw a number of Filipinos saying sana naging baka na lang sila sa NZ. Funny and sad at the same time, isn't it?

Gift of life ❤️ My mom's 10 y/o dog died last month, causing her so much grief. Muffy was my 1st gift to her from my 1st ever salary during residency. Now, 1 of my patients gave this puppy, Barley, w/c will become my mom's new baby. Thank you to my ever so thoughtful patients! ❤️
