PY
II. Procedure:
1. Form groups of 5 members.
2. Each member is given 1 minute to recall a consumer right discussed in the
previous module. When the bell rings, the student passes the paper to the
next member.
3. Group Sharing:
Discuss these in your group.
a. What does each consumer right mean?
b. In what ways can you practice these rights?
Republic Act No. 7394 or the Consumer Act of the Philippines has three
objectives (Galvez Tan, et al., 2009):
1. Protect the interest of the consumer
2. Promote his/her general welfare
3. Establish standards of conduct for business and industry
D
To achieve the objectives, the Act aims to protect people against hazards to
health and safety, and deceptive and unfair sales acts and practices. In this light, the
policy mandates for information dissemination and education to facilitate sound choice
and proper exercise of rights by the consumer.
The Consumer Act also covers the quality and safety of different products
like food, drugs, cosmetics, and devices. The policy also promotes the protection of
citizens against hazardous substances that may be in sale. Hence, proper labeling
and fair packaging shall be required for all the products being sold.
Aside from health information and products, health services also play an
important role in appraising and improving the well-being of a person. Health services,
which are also covered under the Consumer Act, are also availed by consumers. One
form of health service is complementary and alternative medicine.
236
All rights reserved. No part of this material may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means electronic or mechanical including photocopying – without written permission from the DepEd Central Office. First Edition, 2015.
In connection with the Consumer Act, Republic Act 8423 or the Traditional and
Alternative Medicine Act of 1997 (TAMA) provides for the improvement of quality and
delivery of healthcare services in the country through the development of traditional
and alternative healthcare and its integration into the national healthcare system.
PY
The policy also identifies medicinal plants in the country which are readily
available. These medicinal plants shall be given care by different agencies. In order to
coordinate various activities and programs in the traditional and alternative healthcare
delivery system, the Act provisions the establishment of the Philippine Institute of
Traditional and Alternative Healthcare (PITAHC) to accelerate the development of the
said healthcare in the country.

III. Reproductive Health
Another pressing health issue that concerns you as an adolescent is
reproductive health. “Reproductive health is defined as a state of physical, mental,
and social well-being in all matters relating to the reproductive system, at all stages
of life” (Galvez Tan, et al., 2009). With the sudden physical and emotional changes in
your body, more and more questions are starting to surface. Reproductive health is
crucial for it paves the way for your social and economic development. Furthermore, it
has also a great influence in the health of the next generation. The health of newborn
children will be dependent on the health of the parents, particularly the mother.
PY
To aid the reproductive health needs of the citizens, the government mandated
the RA 10354 or most commonly known as the Responsible Parenthood and
Reproductive Health Act. Get to know more about the Act by answering the activity.

Readings:
Reproductive health also concerns problems such as sexually-transmitted
infections. According to Dr. Natividad (2013), in the Young Adult Fertility and Sexuality
Study of 2013 (YAFS-4), a survey of Filipino college and high school graduates, 36.2
percent and 43.5 percent respectively admitted to having engaged in premarital sex.
In addition 66.7 percent and 79.6 percent did not use any protection at first premarital
sex. These scenarios are most often the causes of infections.
C
O
Activity 5: YOUR AID TO AIDS
PY
Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome or AIDS is caused by human
immunodeficiency virus (HIV) which usually does not have symptoms in its early
stages. “Initially, people with HIV were diagnosed as having AIDS only when they
developed blood infections, the cancer known as Kaposi’s sarcoma, or any of the 21
other indicator diseases” (Donatelle, 2006). In addition, HIV is highly infectious through
unprotected sexual intercourse, breastfeeding (of an infected mother to infant), and
blood transfusion/injecting drugs (needles used for infected patients). Currently, there
are several treatment options for HIV and AIDS, but no known cure yet.
EP
E
D
Write a short reflection on how HIV affect a person’s life and others.
D
In this light, the government also puts its efforts to eradicate these sex-related
diseases, most especially AIDS.
The Republic Act No. 8504 or the Philippine AIDS Prevention and Control Act
of 1998 was passed by the Congress on July 28, 1997. The Act promulgates “policies
and prescribing measures for the prevention and control of HIV/AIDS in the Philippines,
instituting a nationwide HIV/AIDS information and educational program, establishing
a comprehensive HIV/AIDS monitoring system, strengthening the Philippine National
AIDS Council, and for other purposes” (PNAC).
The Act also provides for education and information dissemination in various
institutions and agencies, safe practice and procedures (testing, screening, and
counseling) in health organizations and associations, monitoring of cases with
confidentiality, and programs for anti-discriminatory acts (in the workplace, hospitals,
and other public institutions).

Activity 6: TRUE OR FALSE
Write True if it is according to the policy, and False if it is not.
__________ 1. A person with HIV/AIDS is allowed to donate blood, tissues, or
organs.
__________ 2. HIV testing is not compulsory and required.
__________ 3. Pre- and post-test counseling sessions are given to those who
undergo HIV testing in accredited centers.
PY
__________ 4. People with HIV/AIDS are not allowed to avail services provided
by public hospitals because infection might spread.
C
O
__________ 5. AIDSWATCH monitors the incidences of HIV infection in the
country and writes reports about it.
__________ 6. A person with HIV/AIDS is treated with utmost confidentiality by
medical personnel.
__________ 7. A patient’s case is still confidential even if there is an interference

PY
Why do people engage in unsafe and unprotected premarital sex?
1. Form a group with 5 members. Assign each member numbers 1-5.
2. Each member will be given 20 counts to write his/her response to the
question above.
3. When the time is up, he/she will pass the paper to the next member.
IV. Substance Use and Abuse
D
Gateway drugs may be considered as windows to unprotected sex. These are
drugs “that people use initially that may eventually lead to the abuse of illegal drugs”
(Galvez Tan, et al., 2009). Alcohol and tobacco are gateway drugs. When alcohol is
consumed, the central nervous system is affected. Thus, a person is more vulnerable
to doing dangerous acts because of depressed decision-making skills.

On the other hand, the government also provides protection from these
gateway drugs through the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act and the Tobacco
Regulation Act.
EP
E
D
Republic Act No. 9165 or the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002
protects citizens from the harmful effects of dangerous drugs to their physical and
mental well-being. According to the policy, here are some which are considered as
unlawful acts and are subject to penalties and fines.

i. Unnecessary prescribing dangerous drugs
243
All rights reserved. No part of this material may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means electronic or mechanical including photocopying – without written permission from the DepEd Central Office. First Edition, 2015.
On the other hand, Republic Act No. 9211 or the Tobacco Regulation Act of
2003 protects people from the sale, use, and advertisements of hazardous tobacco
products.
In order to promote a healthful environment, the Act absolutely bans smoking
in public places, most especially in centers of youth activities, elevators and stairwells,
fire-hazardous places, within public and private hospitals and medical clinics, airport
and other terminals, and food preparation areas. In this light, a designated smoking
and non-smoking area should be utilized.
PY
The Act also restricts access to sale of tobacco products to minors. Tobacco
may not be put in a vending machine, unless it verifies age, and may not be sold within
100 meters of a school. Should tobacco be sold, there should be proper signage that
indicates target consumers.
C
O
When it comes to advertising and promotions, the Act provisions the printing of
warnings on cigarette packs in either Filipino or English. In addition, health warnings
should also be included.
D
Lastly, the government should provide programs and projects for those who
shall be affected by the passing of the Act. One example of which are the tobacco
growers. The Act provisions the establishment of a cooperative and assistance
program for the said people.
EP
E
Activity 9: CIGARETTE PACKS
D
The Tobacco Regulation Act of 2003 requires the printing of warnings on
cigarette packs.
1. What are some examples of these warnings?
2. Design the packs of cigarettes.
Reflection Questions:
1. How did you feel upon writing the warnings?

V. Social Health
Peer influence also concerns you as adolescents. You are in the
developmental stage wherein you build lasting relationships with peers. Here are
some issues that you may encounter:
PY
1. Cybercrime
With the advancement of technology, there are various platforms
where you may express yourself. This diversity may do both good and
harm to you. “Cyber refers to a computer or a computer network, the
electronic medium in which online communication takes place”. Thus,
cybercrime is simply any crime committed in cyberspace. To protect the
citizens from this concern, the government mandated Republic Act No.
10175 or the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012. The law mandates
the prohibition of cybersex, child pornography, unsolicited commercial
communications, and computer-related identity theft.
D
C
O
2. Child Pornography
In relation to cybercrime, child pornography has become a
pressing concern of this generation. Republic Act No. 9775 or the AntiChild Pornography Act of 2009 defines the crime of child pornography.
As defined, “Child pornography” refers to any representation, whether
visual, audio, or written combination thereof, by electronic, mechanical,
digital, optical, magnetic or any other means, of child engaged or
involved in real or simulated explicit sexual activities” (Official Gazette,
2009). In addition, it is also important to note how the Act defines a
“child”.
D
EP
E
“Child” refers to a person below eighteen (18) years of age
or over, but is unable to fully take care of himself/herself
from abuse, neglect, cruelty, exploitation or discrimination
because of a physical or mental disability or condition. For
the purpose of this Act, a child shall also refer to:
(1) a person regardless of age who is presented, depicted
or portrayed as a child as defined herein; and
(2) computer-generated, digitally or manually crafted images
or graphics of a person who is represented or who is
made to appear to be a child as defined herein.
Child pornography may also be syndicated if there are three (3) or more
persons confederating with one another. In this light, it is not only the victim
who can file a complaint, but the parents or guardians, relative within the
third degree, officer or social worker of a licensed child-caring institution
or DSWD, barangay chairman, law enforcement officer, at least three
concerned responsible citizens in the same place where the pornography
occurs, and a person who is knowledgeable of the law may do so.
245

Once the victim is identified, he/she is subject to care, custody and
treatment from the Department of Social Welfare and Development. In
addition, an inter-agency program shall also be established to prevent child
pornography.
EP
E

C
O
PY
Activity 10: RESCUE THE CHILD
When a child is subject under pornography, who may file a complaint for the
victim? List them below.
3. Hazing
D
Fraternities and sororities, gangs, and social groups are starting
to become more and more identified and publicized. Because of their
“alleged” prestige and prime, more teens are encouraged to be a part
of them. For some of these groups, hazing may be an option to test an
“applicant’s” willingness and commitment. On the other hand, hazing is
very dangerous, and proven to have killed many lives.
The government protects the youth through the Republic Act
No. 8949 or the Anti-Hazing Law. The Act penalizes those who will
go too far during initiation rites wherein the “applicant” is subjected to
severe physical and emotional pain and suffering
4. Blood Donation
Being proactive citizens of the country, you must willingly help
others in ways that will not harm you. One of the emerging forms of
voluntary service is blood donation. Republic Act No. 7719 or the
National Blood Services Act of 1994 aims to promote and encourage
246
All rights reserved. No part of this material may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means electronic or mechanical including photocopying – without written permission from the DepEd Central Office. First Edition, 2015.
voluntary blood donation by the citizenry, provide for adequate, safe
and affordable and equitable distribution of blood and blood products.
In order to attain these aims, the Act provisions the establishment of a
Blood Services Network which consists of the following:

Pollution and road safety are two of the most usual issues that concern you
as a member of your community. Here are some policies most appropriate to address
these concerns.
1. Pollution
D
With the exponential growth in population, more resources are being
demanded and supplied to the people. However, people do not manage
these resources properly. Thus, pollution arises. That is why the government
mandated the Republic Act No. 9512 or the National Environmental
Awareness and Education Act of 2008.
This Act promotes environmental awareness through environmental
education. Various educational agencies, DSWD, DOST, and DENR shall
integrate environmental education in their curricula. It shall encompass the
concepts and principles, laws, international and national best practices,
threats of degradation and its impacts to human well-being, responsibilities
of humans in conservation, protection and rehabilitation of resources,
and sustainable development through the environment. In addition,
environmental education shall also be part of the National Service Training
Program (NSTP).
