Concerns raised on face to face classes, monkey pox, and dengue

Live healthy and long

Citizens have to face 3 fold concerns over 3 health issues:    face to face classes, monkey pox, and more cases of dengue.

1.  For covid 19, cases are rising and projected to be as high as 10,000 in October
2.  There is all ready a monkey pox case in the Philippines   Elsewhere in the world as in USA, there has been an increase in the number of cases
3.   An alarm has been raised over the increase in number of dengue and deaths from the said disease.  It seems to be reching an epidemic status

But #1 is sure is a great concern.  More infectious strains are spreading, And surely face to face classes are superspreader events.   While we try to revive the economy 10,000 cases per day is worrisome.   

In Japan and South Korea, there has been an upsurge in the number of cases.  In Jpan, it was as high as more than 100,000 cases per day.  

Rethinking on face to face classes at this point   The children are very vulnerable because most of them are  unvaccinated
