Soldiers save kid from rabies
August 28, 2009, 3:16pm

CAMP KALAW, Monkayo, Compostela Valley (ComVal) - Due to the immediate response of the operating troops of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP), a four-year-old girl was saved from the dreaded rabies in this agricultural and mining rich town. Soldiers of the 25th Infantry Battalion (IB) led by Lt. Col. Gilbert F. Saret, made an immediate response to save Honey May Barabad, who was bitten by a rabid puppy.

Through the help of the local government of ComVal, the Provincial Social Welfare and Development Office (PSWDO), local leaders, various individuals, including the residents of Barangay Ngan, a more than P15,000 worth of anti-rabies vaccine was produced by the 25th IB to save the life of Honey Mae. Last August 7, Honey May was bitten on the face by a puppy and after several days, the said puppy showed deteriorating health condition and eventually died. When the 25th IB troopers learned of this, Lt. Ernest D. Carolina coordinated with various agencies in search of possible sources of anti-rabies vaccine to help Honey May. The puppy was sent to the Davao City Veterinary Office for analysis and it was tested positive of rabies last August 13. (Mike Crismundo)
