      I remember a guy stating that duterte not disclosing his SALNs was a 4d chess move to force congress to make a law making filing your SALNs mandatory.

      in comes to health madami eh,

      • “hindi namamatay ang coronavirus kahit sa alcohol, heat, soap”
      • “coronavirus ay hindi sipon lang”(actually pde ka magkasipon lang tlga gawa ng coronavirus, I’m not talking about being asymptomatic, I’m talking about actually contracting cold due to coronavirus)
      • “tinatawag na coronavirus ang COVID-19”(bruh SARS and MERS left the chat)
      • “treating vitamins and minerals as a cure”(sinisipon ka? inom ka lemon mataas sa vitamin c yan!)
      • “Ang immune system ay nasa tiyan kaya dapat kumain ka ng kumain”(they treat lamina propria as the immune god, actually hindi tumitigil ang immune response sa tyan at dahil dito mas tone down ang immune system dito, kasi kung hindi chronic inflammation ang aabutin nito so mas mahina ang immune system sa tyan kesa sa for example sa balat pag nasugatan ka kaya nga may gut bacteria eh makakasurvive ba yon kung sobrang lakas ng immune system sa tyan)
      • “treating common cold during flu season as allergy”(flu season nga eh viruses ang talamak, hindi allergens)
      • “antibiotic for viral infection”(antivirals left the chat)
      • “mas maasim mas marami vitamin c”(this misinfo is even taught to elementary schools, 5 calamansi for making calamansi drink > 1 lemon for making lemonade)
      • “pag mataba mas malusog”(fattier the better, actually mas bad kasi fat cells are easily stimulated to produce inflammatory cytokines)
      • “underestimating immune system”(Immune system can kill you in 15 minutes if it turn against you, ebola can kill you in 6 days)

      My dad once told me when I was young na pag naholdap ka raw sabihin mo “Hindi tayo talo” at guaranteed na papabayaan ka. I’m glad I was never in that situation malamang na-gripuhan ako.

        I kind of see where your father got it from. Honor among thieves, that kind of thing–that doesn’t make it any less stupid tho. Besides, kahit na makumbinsi mo yung holdaper mo na pareho lang kayo ng “line of work”, di yun garantiya na di ka nya papatuisin.

        But speaking from personal experience, kung kung nakatira ka sa lugar na maraming snatchers, for example, malamang markado ka na as a local, and they generally leave you alone. Tipong “Oi! Yang si Megane, taga looban yan, mabait nanay nyan! Wag nyong papatusin yan ah!” Lol!
