I'm Mayee, Filipino family physician. Since last year, I work in disease surveillance in the Philippines. I'm still learning the ropes of my current job. I'm not an epidemiologist but I got experience in the govt/public health system, as a medical health officer, as a doctor in a govt hospital, & as a disease surveillance officer.

Running a hypothetical with #CostaRica base and then spending 100% more on #PreventativeHealthCare and another 100% on #PrimaryHealthCare would be interesting modelling.

They’re our unsung hero’s.
