A year and a half since the COVID-19 pandemic broke out, we are honored to have RJ and Yummy Jalijali, husband and wife and parents to two children who bravely share about their first-hand experience of the said virus (and in the context of the Philippines) as cases continue to rise. Despite being extra precautionary, and with almost their whole household being vaccinated, they were 32 weeks pregnant with their second child when they contracted COVID and Yummy had to go through an emergency C-section. We found their story to be very relevant at a time when there have been doubts and uncertainty about the efficacy of the vaccines, especially also for pregnant and lactating women. With this episode, we keep an honest intention to help others make a decision about this matter and to still stay safe and not be complacent thereafter even with it. 
RJ and Yummy are most grateful for the medical workers who helped them get through this ordeal and for the prayers (and food!) that friends and family have offered them.

This episode is dedicated to all frontliners and to those who have dedicated their days fighting against COVID-19.
