SOLID Earth Development Corp. (SEDC) sent back three separate medical missions to the hinterlands of San Fernando, Cebu over the recent months.

With the support of Taiheiyo Cement Philippines Inc. (TCPI), it mobilized resources and volunteers to serve a total of 1,958 residents who hardly have access to medical attention.

SEDC director and chief technical adviser Hiroyuki Sakakibara oversaw the three missions in Barangay Ilaya, then in Barangay Tañañas, and in Barangay Cabatbatan.

The mission recorded similar cases in the three barangays, including common cough and colds, stomachache, arthritis, body malaise, diabetes, headache, fever, urinary tract infection, and upper respiratory tract infection.
