Clip of official touting hypertension remedy 'maliciously edited': Philippine health department
The Philippines' Department of Health (DOH) has warned that videos appearing to show undersecretary Maria Rosario Vergeire touting a cure for hypertension are "maliciously edited". The videos were altered from an interview in 2023 and a speech at a local research conference in 2022 -- neither of which originally mentioned hypertension or a cure for the condition.
