I have known that on Saturday 28 July this year, an earthquake of 6.4 magnitude on the scale of Richter has shaken Indonesia, which has recorded a total of 20 deaths and hundreds of casualties. That is why, during a research process that I have done online, the coordinator of the National Network of Disasters and International Red Cross has mentioned some recommendations necessary to prevent these natural disasters:
- The first reaction that we must have, even if it is difficult, is to remain calm and transmit that feeling to those who are with us to prevent panic from making us conduct out of our judgment that could hurt or hurt others.
- Locate the corners of the house, such as the door frames, and place them under these.
- Choose a safe place inside the house. Crouching, covering his head and holding on to a stable structure; For example, under a table or desk. There are so intense earthquakes that keep you from standing, so it is best to crawl towards a safe object.
- If there is no safe furniture, sit on the floor against an interior wall. If the house is of adobe and with heavy roof, to go outside.
- Move away from windows, mirrors, shelves, hanging plants, ledges and lamps that can be removed from the base.
- Do not use the lifts; Go down the stairs. Inside a building, stay inside this enclosure: do not go out, not run and protect yourself.
- When you stop shaking, evacuate the building in an orderly manner, following the signs of evacuation routes and go to the pre-established meeting points.
- When you stop shaking, evacuate the building in an orderly manner, following the signs of evacuation routes and go to the pre-established meeting points.
- If he trembles when we walk in the public thoroughfare, move away from electrical service poles, trees, windows, buildings, structures with cornices or old.
- If we travel in a vehicle, park it in a safe place as soon as possible, do not leave it and not obstruct the tracks.
