Tawa-tawa and Dengue

At first, I found it hard to read it as it is spelled with a 'u' instead of 'w' as what is common here in the southern part of the Philippines.  The once  lowly tawa-tawa (scientific name :euphorbia hierta) has taken it's royal seat with the country's ongoing fight against dengue . The Philippine Daily Inquirer has it on front page, with DOH claiming that dengue is now under control . This is good news, but then , as we learned in kindergarten, an ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure!

Stay healthy, wealthy and wise! ( need we add more?:-)
