COLD WAVE : ਠੰਡ ਦੇ ਦੌਰਾਨ ਕੀ ਕਰਨਾ ਅਤੇ ਕੀ ਨਹੀਂ ਕਰਨਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ
Some precautions by Government during cold wave
Stay indoors as much as possible.
Monitor all media outlets for weather and emergency procedure information.
Check on any neighbours who live alone, especially the elderly.
Ensure emergency supplies are easily accessible-no power means-no electricity. If electricity fails, freezers will preserve food for up to 48 hours if the door is kept shut.
Use only one room-an internal room or passage will be easier to heat. Regular hot drinks will maintain body heat to fight the cold.
•Ensure that adequate clothing is worn-many light layers are better than one thick layer.
•Hats and mufflers help to prevent heat loss.
Keep dry. Change wet clothing frequently to prevent loss of body heat
•Cover your head, as most body heat is lost through the top of the head and cover your mouth to protect your lungs.
Eat healthy food to supply heat to the body and drink non-alcoholic beverages to avoid dehydration.
Visit doctor for signs of frostbite: loss of feeling and white or pale appearance on fingers, toes, ear lobes and the tip of the nose.
Visit doctor for signs of hypothermia (subnormal body temperature): uncontrolled shivering, memory loss, disorientation, incoherence, slurred speech, drowsiness and apparent exhaustion.
