MAASIN CITY, Southern Leyte, Jan. 2 (PIA) -- Except for the gunshot wound, it is a scorecard worth emulating. This province maintained its record for the second year of zero casualties reaching hospitals resulting in firecracker burns at the height of the usually boisterous New Year’s eve celebration. As of 8:00 a.m. yesterday, there was no firecracker-related cases registered at the Salvacion Oppus Yniguez Memorial Provincial Hospital (SOYMPH) in this city and at Sogod District Hospital (SDH). The zero incidence of firecracker injury showed that the heightened advocacy campaign of the Department of Health (DOH) on “Aksyon Paputok Injury Reduction (APIR) was successful, even as the Philippine National Police (PNP) and the Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP) also did their share in issuing public precautions for their “Iwas Paputok” campaign. At SDH, it was learned that one Rodel Renoblas, 21, single, resident of barangay Tampoong, Sogod, was rushed to the hospital a few minutes past midnight after he sustained a gunshot wound at the back.

Meanwhile, unlike last year, there was no incident of budol-budol fraud in the run-up to the holidays and Enage attributed this to the strong visibility of Police Officers, where every bank was watched, as well as in areas where many people were crowding, such as in shopping stores.
