Your request

You asked for Number of reported cases of foodborne diseases in Region V.

Response to your request

While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance this Office does not have the information you have requested. 

Per our data holder of FHSIS & PIDSR at DOH Regional Office 5, the requested data on food borne diseases/infection associated with eating raw or contaminated animal meat is not available at the CHD because it is not one of the health indicators being reported under the FHSIS & PIDSR. You may consult the different hospitals in the Bicol region as this may be included in the hospital data. Refer to the list of DOH Hospitals posted in the DOH website at https://doh.gov.ph/doh-hospitals-directory or the National Health Facility Registry (NHFR) website at https://nhfr.doh.gov.ph/VActivefacilitiesList
