Editorial: Are you smarter than an anti-vaxxer?
April 24, 2021
OBVIOUSLY, that is no way to start a conversation with someone who isn't yet convinced he or she ought to get vaccinated against the virus that causes Covid-19. Approach the conversation that way and you may as well say goodbye to any hopes you had of persuading someone to get vaccinated.
So how do we persuade someone, presumably someone we care about, to get vaccinated if they still have their doubts? Begin by opening yourself to the possibility that they may be in your immediate family, clan or circle of friends. They're out there. Some may be concealing their ...

Tabada: Guardians
April 24, 2021
We keep house in Silang for one male human, a sire (male dog that has fathered puppies), three dams (two Aspin [Asong Pinoy] mothers who gave birth to their first litter and a Puspin [Pusang Pinoy] on her sixth litter, we guess), a young cat, five female puppies, and four female kittens.
And the bitch: Me.
After I recently grilled a prospective guardian, the husband described the experience: terrifying.
He was probably describing the third degree our friend, in making his request to adopt a puppy, did not expect to be subjected to.

Cabaero: Breakthrough

THE rise in the numbers of new infection cases and deaths for weeks now have left many people feeling hopeless and broken.
There were sick people dying in tents, homes, or, in at least one case, inside his car while waiting to be accepted in hospitals for treatment for the coronavirus disease (Covid-19). Infection cases reached from 8,000 to 15,000 per day, bringing the total number of infection cases in the country close to one million.
The lockdowns at Metro Manila and the provinces of Bulacan, Cavite, Laguna, and Rizal left thousands without jobs and some businesses closed. Government ...

Malilong: Of dogs, cats and a lizard
April 24, 2021
WHEN the pandemic struck, one of the things I really prayed hard for was to stay uninfected by, and eventually immunized against, the coronavirus that causes the Covid-19 disease. God heard my prayer; I had my first jab last Monday. I would like to believe that I made it easier for Him to grant my wish by staying at home and, on the few occasions that I ventured out, by wearing a mask and observing physical distancing.
Time moves slowly while you anxiously wait for hoped-for deliverance. Because human interaction was limited, I tried other means to keep myself ...

Lim: Get the jab
April 24, 2021
FINALLY. They're here. The vaccines that we've all been pining for are finally here. Some fortunate ones got their jabs right before the city's precious vaccine stash temporarily ran out. But worry not. More vaccines are coming.
Individuals can register at https://mics.cebucity.gov.ph/vims/. Private companies can register at http://www.projectbalikbuhay.com/.
And yet, vaccine hesitancy persists even among the most vulnerable—those 60 and above. There's a very low risk of adverse reaction from vaccination but a very high risk of death in case of Covid-19 infection. Please get your jabs.

Briones: Vaccination hitch
April 24, 2021
I THOUGHT the problem the Cebu City Government faced when it started the vaccine rollout for senior citizens on Monday, April 19, 2021, was that there weren't enough takers.
That may have been true in the beginning.
If I remember correctly, less than 800 showed up at the two vaccination sites at the University of Cebu Banilad campus and the Robinsons Galleria on the first day.
Cebu City is home to over 80,000 senior citizens, but only close to 15,000 registered to be vaccinated. That's less than 20 percent who signed up to receive the first dose of the ...
