Alden Richards is on the new DOH sticker pack on Viber

Because Alden Richards as we all know is the ambassador of the Department of Health (DOH) campaign against the spread of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), his handsome mug of course makes it to the new DOH Viber sticker pack.

The sticker pack aims to encourage the spread of credible and helpful information amid the COVID-19 pandemic.  

According to the press statement, the Viber sticker pack is linked to DOH's bot nicknamed KIRA or "Katuwang na Impormasyon para sa Responsableng Aksyon, which has over 120,000 subscribers on Viber.

As a support to DOH's "BIDA Solusyon sa COVID-19 campaign," the stickers were  released to encourage and motivate Filpinos to take a more active role in fighting against the virus by following the 4-letter reminder.

The acronym BIDA stands for:

• Bawal walang mask
• I-sanitize ang kamay
• Dumistansiya ng isang metro and
• Alamin ang totoong impormasyon

DOH launched the Viber Community in March to help spread accurate information on COVID-19 to millions of Filipinos.

Last April, DOH and Viber partnered as they launched a chatbot to help its users in the Philippines stay updated on the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

In July, Alden Richards was named the ambassador for DOH's campaign. — Jannielyn Ann Bigtas/LA, GMA News
