- Tropical Storm Megi/Agaton struck in April 2022 across many of the same areas affected by TY Rai/Odette, causing floods and landslides.
- Health human resources are overstretched due to competing priorities, including controlling the spread of COVID-19. Dengue cases are also rising in both Southern Leyte and Caraga.
- Food remains to be the need of families living within evacuation centers. Support on food and nutrition of IDPs reportedly declined as efforts transition towards early recovery.
- OCHA is preparing a handover/exit strategy to ensure coordination of continuing response beyond the lifespan of the Humanitarian Needs and Priorities (HNP) plan ending 30 June.
- As of May, the humanitarian response under the HNP is 46 per cent funded. Nevertheless, funding remains a key constraint as communities transition to early recovery.
