A story about a severely malnourished child in Cebu. In the segment, we tackled the hunger situation of Filipinos in the country during the pandemic. Our case study, Ranelyn, was rescued and now fully recovered, while the local government also conducted a deworming activity for other undernourished children as a response to the problem of the town—all these happened after the segment aired.
