In response to the Luding earthquake in Sichuan, the Ministry of Emergency Management released the popular science of risk aversion
How to save yourself and mutual rescue after the earthquake
html At 12:52 on September 5, a magnitude 6.8 earthquake occurred in Luding County, Ganzi Prefecture, Sichuan Province. As of 17:00 on September 11, the earthquake had killed 93people, and the disaster touched the hearts of hundreds of millions of compatriots. After the disaster, the Emergency Management Department specially conducted popular science on how to avoid risks, self-rescue and mutual rescue when the earthquake occurs and after it occurs.
01 Dodge nearby during earthquake, quickly evacuate after earthquake
Dodge nearby during earthquake, and quickly evacuate to a safe place after earthquake. At present, experts generally believe that avoiding nearby during earthquakes and quickly evacuate to a safe place after earthquakes is currently a better way to respond to emergency shock absorption. This is because the warning time during earthquake is very short, and people often cannot act independently. In addition, the deformation of doors and windows makes it very difficult to run out of the indoors; if it is in a building (except the first floor), it is basically impossible to run out. But if you are in a bungalow and you find the warning early and the outdoors are relatively empty, you can strive to escape shock absorption.
02 In different scenarios, the shock absorption methods are different
If you encounter an earthquake in a cinema, gymnasium, etc., especially when the power is out, you should squat down on the spot or hide under a row of chairs, pay attention to avoid hanging objects such as chandeliers, electric fans, etc., and use a schoolbag to protect your head.
In the event of an earthquake, if it is in a shopping mall, bookstore, exhibition hall, etc., you should choose a solid counter, commodity or column, and squat down on the spot in the corner of the wall, protect your head with your hands or other things, and avoid glass doors and windows and glass windows.
Students who are in class should quickly evacuate or take risks on the spot according to the usual drill plan under the guidance of the teacher. The prerequisite for avoiding danger on the spot is that you really have no time to run out of the building, or be sure that the building will not collapse.
03 Don’t rush to get things or take the elevator when evacuating
Once the earthquake is over, people should quickly evacuate to outdoor safety areas, because the house may have been damaged and may collapse at any time. At the same time, after a large earthquake, strong aftershocks often occur. Pay attention to the following points when evacuating:
Don’t rush to get items, because taking items will delay escaping time. When evacuating, just bring your mobile phone, emergency package and other essential items.
Do not take the elevator, because the elevator may be powered out or damaged due to earthquakes. Evacuate from safe passages as much as possible.
must ensure orderly evacuation, do not crowd, and prevent falls. If someone falls, he should be helped up as soon as possible, and at the same time, he would like to ask those who have not evacuated to evacuate as soon as possible.
Pay attention to whether the evacuation road is flat and safe to prevent falling and falling.
Pay attention to the environment around the road, whether there are any heavy objects that may fall or collapsed walls, etc., to prevent injuries.
If the evacuation road is blocked, you should re-select; if there is indeed no evacuation road to choose, find a safe area as soon as possible and wait for rescue.
04 Do not stay in these places after evacuation
After evacuation, stay away from tall buildings or dangerous objects, and try to stay in emergency shelter or spacious places to ensure safety.
Do not stand in the middle of the road to ensure that emergency rescue vehicles are driving smoothly and avoid being hit by vehicles.
Do not approach the wall, do not stand by the embankment or hide under dead trees, because it may be injured due to the collapse of the wall, the landslide of the embankment, and the fall of dead branches.
When the vibration is over or the gap is cleared, do not rush back to the room to get things. The house may collapse due to earthquake damage. At the same time, be careful to cause damage caused by strong aftershocks.
05 When buried, you must firmly maintain your confidence in survival
Most of the damage caused to humans by the collapsed houses. If you don’t have time to evacuate and are buried in the ruins, you must not collapse mentally. You must have courage and perseverance, and have the confidence to survive. You must believe that you will be able to escape from danger and cannot escape for the moment. You should comfort yourself, wait patiently for rescue, and do not be pessimistic and desperate.
You must save your physical strength and wait patiently. Never call loudly or cry loudly blindly. Try to minimize physical exhaustion, control your emotions, and wait for rescue.
06 Ensure breathing, save energy and wait for rescue
after being buried, remove the dust in the mouth as soon as possible to ensure smooth breathing; pay attention to covering your mouth, nose and head with wet towels (handkerchiefs), clothes, etc. to avoid choking and suffocation.
If you are injured, cover the wound with clothes or towels to avoid excessive blood loss.
Try to remove various objects pressing on the body, use the surrounding items to support the heavy objects on it, expand the space for movement, ensure sufficient air, and prevent collapse.
You should find something you can eat or drink around you, and save on eating or drinking in case you wait for a long time. In the event of thirst, you can drink your own urine to relieve it. After
is buried, you should pay attention to the surrounding environment, find safe passages, and try to climb out of the ruins. When you cannot climb out, don’t shout loudly and minimize physical energy consumption; call when you hear someone outside, or knock on the water pipe with stones, etc., to convey information about asking for help to the outside world and attract the attention of rescue workers.
Don’t panic when being rescued, listen carefully to the arrangements of the rescue personnel and strive to be rescued as soon as possible.
07 You can participate in mutual rescue when physical conditions allow
If you can evacuate smoothly when an earthquake occurs, and your physical condition and energy allow, then you are encouraged to participate in the rescue work. Previous earthquake disaster events have shown that the survival rate of trapped people will drop rapidly over time.
Therefore, you must quickly tell the people around you or rescue personnel about the burial situation you know.
can use shouting, knocking and other methods to observe whether there are people waiting for rescue in the ruins.
When a person is found to be buried, if it is difficult to rescue, it can help him remove the dust in his mouth and nose, ensure his breathing is smooth, and mark it, waiting for professional rescue personnel to come.
