Department of Health(DOH)

Greetings!

I'm a BS Computer Science student in the University of San Carlos, and I would like to request for the number of daily cases of Upper Respiratory Tract Infection (URTI) and Pneumonia from 1990 to 2024 for the following cities in Metro Cebu:

1. Carcar
2. Cebu
3. Danao
4. Lapu-Lapu
5. Mandaue
6. Naga
7. Talisay

This data will be used for my thesis which will closely analyze the temporal aspect of these trends, making it essential to request this data over such a time frame.

Please let me know if there are more requirements to comply with so that I may provide them as soon as possible. Thank you very much!
