Let the Conclave Decide, Don’t Campaign for Tagle; Says CBCP

Let the Conclave Decide, Don’t Campaign for Tagle; Says CBCP

“This is not the kind of election to campaign for someone…”

Photo from The Vatican

As speculation continues to build around the possibility of a having a new pope being elected, the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) has issued a reminder to the faithful: refrain from campaigning for Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle, and any other cardinals.

Photo from The Vatican

In a recent interview with Radio Veritas, CBCP Episcopal Commission on Public Affairs executive secretary Fr. Jerome Secillano highlighted the importance of respecting the sacred and confidential nature of the papal conclave.

The independence of the electors should be respected, and the least that we can do is to pray for Cardinal Tagle and the rest of the cardinal-electors

CBCP Episcopal Commission on Public Affairs executive secretary Fr. Jerome Secillano

“It’s not prudent for the people to publicly push for Cardinal Tagle as the next pope since it may be misconstrued that the conclave can be influenced by outside forces if and when Cardinal Tagle indeed becomes the next pontiff.”

The process of choosing the next pope is not a political campaign, but a spiritual and solemn choice involving 120 cardinal-electors from around the world. With over 1.4 billion Catholics worldwide awaiting the next leader of the Church, the conclave must remain free from external pressure and influence.

Photo from The Vatican

While the Philippines, a predominantly Catholic country, has a representation of three potentials in the College of Cardinals—Cardinal Tagle, Cardinal Jose Advincula, and Cardinal Orlando Quevedo—the CBCP urges us, Filipinos, to instead offer prayers rather than public endorsements.

In the end, the Church reminds us: it is the Holy Spirit who ultimately guides the decision, Sugboanons, and not the mass’ word of mouth.

Heated Up: Signs Your Pet May Be Having a Heatstroke

Grabe najud ang init, Sugboanons!

Photo from Pexels

Now that the temperatures are rising, and at 38-Degrees Celsius at most, we crave the cold comfort of Halo-Halo, and any iced creamy desserts. But, aside from the vacation mode vibes that we’re turning on, there comes potential illnesses and medical conditions brought by the heat—such as the deadly heat stroke, and not just in humans, but also in pets.

What are the signs that your pet might be suffering from heatstroke?

Photo from Pexels

Check On Your Pets

Unlike us, pets can’t just grab a drink or turn on a fan. They rely on us to help them regulate their body temperatures. So it’s best to know the signs and act fast:

  • Excessive panting or difficulty breathing
  • Drooling more than usual
  • Lethargy or weakness
  • Vomiting or diarrhea (sometimes with blood)
  • Bright red, pale, or bluish gums and tongue
  • Uncoordinated movement or collapse
  • Seizures (in extreme cases)
Photo from Pexels

What To Do If You Suspect a Heatstroke

Heatstroke can come on fast and is life-threatening if not addressed immediately. So, if you think your furbaby is overheating, here’s what you can do:

  • Move them to a cooler area immediately.
  • Offer cool (not ice-cold) water to drink.
  • Wet their body using a damp towel or place them near a fan.
  • Avoid using ice or very cold water—this can cause shock.
  • Go to the vet ASAP. Even if they seem better, internal damage may have occurred.
Photo from Pexels

Prevention is always better than cure, therefore, during this summer season, always remember to never leave your pet inside parked vehicles, even for a short time. You should also limit outdoor playtime during the hottest hours (10 AM to 4 PM). And most importantly, provide cool shade, cold water, and groom your pets regularly especially breeds with thick long fur.

Pets are family, and they need extra care during the summer months. So while we’re out there living our best life under the sun, let’s not forget our furbabies need us.

According to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA), the month of May is expected to be even hotter. PAGASA stated that temperatures could rise to approximately 47°C. Authorities are also warning the public about possible heat-related illnesses such as heat exhaustion and heat stroke. It’s important to stay hydrated and, if necessary, avoid direct exposure to sunlight.

High Temps in Luzon & Visayas; ITCZ in Mindanao

PAGASA recorded the highest temperature this April in areas such as San Ildefonso. Several other places in Luzon and the Visayas are also experiencing “danger-level” heat indices, ranging from 40°C and above. So, to cope up with the heat, here are some tips to keep in mind:

  • Stay hydrated
  • Minimize exposure to heat
  • Avoid strenuous activities between 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM
  • Cool off with baths or showers
  • Pay attention to your body’s signals
  • Wear light or loose-fitting clothing
  • Seek medical attention immediately if you experience symptoms of heat-related illnesses

While some parts of Mindanao, particularly in the northern region, are experiencing high heat indices, the other side may have occasional rain showers due to the presence of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ).

Let’s prepare for the intense heat this coming May, Sugboanons and always stay informed by keeping up with frequent weather updates.
