If health wasn’t at the topmost priority among Filipinos pre-pandemic, it surely claimed the number 1 spot during and post-pandemic. Gone are the days when we visited clinics or hospitals only when we felt the need to have something diagnosed and treated. In fact, Filipinos are now more engaged in taking preventive measures in order to boost immunity, retain strength and health, and detect illnesses even before they get worse.
