The rainy season is here and I heard Leptospirosis is on the rise in the Philippines. How can we protect our kids from this scary disease?

Protective clothing is a must. Last year, I bought my preschooler a superman raincoat and a pair of boots since his school was 5-minute walk from our house. Still, i tell my son to not wade in flood water in spite the footwear. I also make it a point to wash his feet or bathe him when he arrives home during a rainy day.
