The article i read was based on the US community but it is not unlikely that it also happens to other countries. Lucky you out there the antiB are very affordable and they can treat themselves, pero paano nalang if someone sick cna’t afford. even the money for check-up they don’t have. So prevention is better than cure. diba, sis?
