With the threat of COVID-19 still present in the country, ABS-CBN’s top stars and news personalities urged Filipinos to continue following safety protocols and to get vaccinated to ensure the well-being of their loved ones during this pandemic.
In a public service ad released tonight (November 5) on various ABS-CBN platforms, actors Coco Martin, Jodi Sta. Maria, Enrique Gil, Liza Soberano, and Angel Locsin, together with “TV Patrol” anchors Henry Omaga-Diaz, Karen Davila, and Bernadette Sembrano reminded the public on what they can do to prevent the spread of COVID-19, especially among children and senior citizens at home.
These include getting inoculated when given the opportunity, wearing face masks properly, frequent handwashing or use of alcohol to disinfect hands, avoiding non-essential travel and going to crowded areas, and maintaining physical distance.
They also encouraged those who are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms to immediately inform their Barangay Health Center and follow the instructions and medical advice given to them.
Coco emphasized that while observing the protocols and taking all these precautionary measures may seem difficult, it is a sacrifice worth making to protect the people we love.
“Alam po natin na ito’y maaaring isang malaking abala, pero mas malaki pong problema kapag tayo’y lumala, makahawa ng iba, at lalo na po ng mga bata. Kaya po natin ito, para sa kanila,” said Coco.
Aside from the public service ad, ABS-CBN will also release a series of safety reminders infographics and informative features on its news platforms as part of its continuing efforts to empower the Filipino people in the fight against COVID-19, following its Ligtas Pilipinas sa COVID-19 awareness campaign in 2020.
Watch the “Kaya Natin Para Sa Kanila” public service ad on Kapamilya Channel, TeleRadyo, ANC, and other ABS-CBN cable channels. View it online on Kapamilya Online Live and iWantTFC, and the official Facebook pages and YouTube channels of ABS-CBN Entertainment and ABS-CBN News.
