Typhoon Fung-wong (locally known as Uwan) made landfall on Nov. 9 in the northern Philippines only five days after Typhoon Kalmaegi (locally known as Tino) devastated central parts of the Philippines. Approximately 1.8 million people are affected by the powerful storm. Fung-wong caused extensive flooding and severe wind damage: Americares Philippines team is receiving reports of widespread power outages, interruptions to water and flash floods that have inundated towns, washed away main roads and stranded survivors who are shouting out their needs for food, water and hygiene kits. In coastal communities, storm surge and waves as high as 16 feet damaged hundreds of homes. When Fong-wong was forecast, the entire country was put under a national state of calamity and more than 1 million people evacuated in advance of the storm. The close proximity of Typhoons Fung-wong and Kalmaegi is compounding recovery efforts, especially for communities in the northern province of Luzon still recovering from Super Typhoon Ragasa that struck six weeks ago. Americares Philippines is deploying a mobile medical clinic with 12 response experts. The team will provide health services including mental health; distribute water purification tablets, water filters; provide hygiene education; and distribute medicine to local clinics in need.
