“Walang namamatay sa lindol (Nobody dies from earthquake),” says Jeffrey S. Perez, a geologist from Department of Science and Technology-Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS). “Namamatay kapag nabagsakan ng mga gamit sa bahay. Kaya dapat, ngayon pa lang, i-check nyo na ang mga bahay nyo kung ano ang maaaring makaapekto sa inyo. (People dies when they get hit by falling objects. That is why as early as now, check the things in your house that might affect you).”
