Managing Dengvaxia Miscommunication Through Risk Managing Dengvaxia Miscommunication Through Risk Management Plan by Via Zareena Bulda and Naomi Maraviles National Change Organization LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL Via Zareena Bulda Block 18 Lot 54 Willow Street, Antel Grand Village, Bacao 2, General Trias, Cavite 4107 Dr. Francisco Duque III Department of Health Secretary San Lazaro Compound, Tayuman, Sta. Cruz, Manila, Philippines 1003 March 3, 2018 Dear Dr. Francisco Duque III, Attached to this letter is a report for the risk management development plan for the Dengvaxia controversy. The report is based on the findings and an overall report produced by the National Change Organization. The communication plan solely focused on giving alternative solutions to the victims of the Dengvaxia, by producing paper materials to be disseminated nationwide like brochures, leaflets, and posters containing general information, frequently asked questions, and contact details. The organization also aims to propose a partnership with the government to conduct seminars and require a task force in all hospitals, both public and private, to help and attend to the needs of the victims. After a thorough observation and investigation, the National Change Organization assures that the communication plan can help and guide the victims. If you have any questions or want to discuss this matter further, we can be reached at the above addresses, at (0955) 915 0366 and (0905) 511 3919, or at [email protected] and [email protected]. Sincerely, Via Zareena Bulda 2 Abstract This report focuses on informing the readers about the general information about Sanofi Pasteur, one of the largest companies in the world that specialize in vaccines; Dengvaxia, the anti-dengue vaccine that was created to save millions of lives; and alternative solutions that the National Change Organization came up with to address the issues related to Dengvaxia in the Philippines. Sanofi Pasteur was able to complete the necessary stages before being able to distribute the vaccines to 11 countries which are the Philippines, Mexico, Brazil, El Salvador, Costa Rica, Paraguay, Guatemala, Peru, Indonesia, Thailand, and Singapore. Months after the distribution, a paper by the World Health Organization was released and they ordered that governments should further look into the possible effects of Dengvaxia because it may be ineffective and unsafe to individuals who have never had dengue. Months after the Department of Health’s school-based immunization program, up to 40 cases of children’s deaths have been linked to Dengvaxia. The Senate has filed cases against the government officials who were involved in the implementation of the program, and they are under investigation. This caused confusion amongst the public and mistrust towards the government. The National Change Organization offers alternative solutions to resolve the controversy, which include dissemination of paper materials nationwide such as brochures, posters, and leaflets, social media platforms for announcements, possible partnership with the government to be able to conduct seminars and forums, and partnership with public and private hospitals nationwide to have a task force that will address the concerns of the vaccinated individuals. 3 List of Figures Figure 1: Distribution of Global Dengue Risk

NCO aims to serve, help, and reach out to the needs of the people of the Republic of the Philippines by providing alternative solutions to resolve countless issues and controversies.

More quietly, the administration is also facing challenging choices in the West Philippine Sea. This issue of Politika, wrapping up the quarter, provides an in-depth look at these topics and the priorities of the 17th Congress. The third quarter ended on an ambivalent note, with either no change or a noteworthy drop in President Duterte’s survey ratings. At the end of the third quarter, 80% told Pulse Asia that they approve of the President’s performance and 80% said that they trust him. These are a 2-point difference from his previous approval rating of 82% and a 1-point from his previous trust rating of 81%.

Of the five packs with an estimated Php 64-million street value, three were found by the fisherman while two other packs were found by the teenager. The teenager reportedly hid the illegal drugs before informing others about what he found. “We are still doing the inves- tigation and we have to find out why the teenager hid the shabu before telling others.

  • 25 July 2016 Global BRICS Meet to Curb
    IDPC & HRA News Digest, Asia-Pacific | 18 - 25 July 2016 Global BRICS meet to curb drugs, smuggling and terror Russia & India Report (18/07) Perhaps the most active and relevant activity that BRICS actually does is to tackle the huge menace of drugs and narcotics smuggling worldwide. BRICS has been called a “talking shop of fading relevance,” but the initiative against drugs can bring it back centre-stage. Drug War Fuels Global Lack of Access to Essential Medicines Alternet (19/07) How much pain you have to suffer shouldn’t be determined by where you live, and it is unacceptable that we let stigma and misguided fears of addiction get in the way of allowing patients to realize their right to health. Mass incarceration of drug users leads to high levels of HIV, tuberculosis and hepatitis among prisoners News Medical (19/07) The War on Drugs, mass incarceration of drug users, and the failure to provide proven harm reduction and treatment strategies has led to high levels of HIV, tuberculosis, and hepatitis B and C infection among prisoners—far higher than in the general population. With an estimated 30 million people passing in and out of prisons every year, prisoners will be key to controlling HIV and tuberculosis epidemics worldwide. Time to test – the festival drug report Volteface (21/07) Festival forensic testing won’t stop drug use but it will reduce harm and save lives. And the greater the input from all on-site stakeholders, including users, the more effective on-site testing will be. Support for drug users is mooted IOL (21/07) Drug users – an often neglected key population – could benefit from support structures instead of strict punitive measures.
