Open defecation in Baseco has been cited by the Department of Health as a risk factor in the spread of polio. Meanwhile, regular and continuous cleanups such as the International Coastal clean-up Day attended by 15,000 people on Saturday could also help stem the spread of disease in the area, said George Dela Rama of the Pasig River Rehabilitation Council.
