It was not until the crowd found him in the afternoon that he was rescued. Fortunately, Director Zhao was not injured. , returned home that night.

I would like to remind the general public to pay attention to travel safety during extreme weather, take protective measures, and refrain from going out if possible. Trapped people should not panic, try to find a place where they can take refuge, and call for help in time. Now that floods have occurred, we should think more about what we need to pay attention to after the floods?

What should we pay attention to after the flood? Prevent food poisoning from entering the mouth

It is hot summer, and food is easily spoiled due to the hot weather. After the flood, some food was seriously contaminated due to flooding, so we must pay close attention to whether the food is Dangerous food. To prevent food poisoning during floods, you must first understand which foods may cause food poisoning. Generally speaking, except for sealed cans, all foods that have been soaked in floods, including vegetables and aquatic products, cannot be eaten.

Do not eat dead livestock and poultry, aquatic products, rotten vegetables, and fruits; do not eat seriously moldy rice, wheat, corn, peanuts, leftovers, and raw or cold food; in addition, Do not eat food from unknown sources, food packaged in non-special food containers, food without clear food labels, and food produced by stalls without health licenses. It is worth reminding that after the flood, food processing sites that have been flooded, including food factories, canteens, home kitchens, etc., should clean up the environment in time, clean and disinfect. Prevent animal bites

During floods, some animals that originally lived a peaceful life are also moved around due to the disturbance of floods, so people in the wild are easily bitten by bees, snakes, centipedes, locusts and other animals. In the case of stings, local itching, pain, and skin allergies may occur in mild cases, and general discomfort may occur in severe cases, which may even be life-threatening.

After being stung by a bee, scorpion, or centipede, if there is a sting left in the wound, it should be removed first, and then go to a nearby health center for disinfection. Similarly, after being bitten by a venomous snake, do not panic. You can take emergency measures yourself before sending to the hospital, including using a tourniquet to tie the upper part of the injury to prevent the venom from spreading throughout the body.

At the same time, squeeze out or suck out the venom as much as possible, use snake medicine as soon as possible, and relax the injured limb. Squeezing the wound with your hands can cause the venom to seep out. If you use your mouth to suck out the venom from the wound repeatedly and vigorously, you should pay attention to spitting out while sucking and gargling with water. When a leech bites, it is best not to pull it out forcibly to avoid the locust suckers remaining in the skin and causing infection.

You can pat the bite site gently, or sprinkle salt, alcohol, smoke oil, etc. on the locust's body to make the locust relax its sucker and fall off on its own. In addition to trying to avoid places where animals may enter and exit, you must also be vigilant. If you are bitten by a leech, you can apply soap or protective ointment on the skin of your limbs before going into the water. Cleaning the soaked house

After the flood, it is necessary to clean the flooded house in time and wash the soaked furniture. If the weather permits, you can choose to put the cleaned furniture and items in the sun. Give it some sun. At the same time, we actively cooperate with relevant epidemic prevention personnel to carry out disinfection, killing and eradication work. Promptly repair and disinfect flooded public toilets and garbage collection site facilities.

If feces is not properly treated, it can easily pollute water sources and breed flies. To disinfect feces, use 10 parts of fecal water and 1 part of bleaching powder, stir it, and pour it into the designated place for burial after 2 hours. If it is the feces of a person with intestinal infectious diseases, the ratio can be 5 parts to 1 part bleaching powder, or the same amount of quicklime can be added, stir evenly for 2-4 hours, and then pour it into the designated place for burial. For garbage disposal, combustible materials should be burned as much as possible, or 10,000 mg/L effective chlorine-containing disinfectant solution can be sprayed for more than 60 minutes, and then buried deeply after disinfection.
