Dear Sir/Ma'am,

Good day!

May I ask which government agency may I ask and inquire regarding the statistical probability or data regarding parasites arising from the consumption of salads, lettuce, fish, sushi, mussels and similar types of food here in the Philippines?

Particularly the data regarding the number of deaths, food poisoning cases, and parasitic infections in the Philippines.

Thank you very much!


Respectfully,
Lorenzo Almarines
