Abstract
: Continuous heavy rains along with poor road construction and sewage system had resulted in the frequent occurrence of floods in many areas of the Philippines. As a consequence, leptospirosis remains an infectious disease endemic in the Philippines with numerous cases reported as aftermaths of typhoons especially after heavy flooding. Leptospirosis is known for its invasiveness
