Beware of heat stroke
The number of people transported by emergency due to heat stroke this year (2022) was 446 between May 1 and July 3, when counting began, about 7.2 times the same as the previous year.
This year, the risk of heat stroke has increased due to the fact that the rainy season is earlier than usual, and the temperature rises at a stretch while the body is not accustomed to the heat.
It is expected that severe heat will continue in the future. In many cases, heat stroke occurs indoors without using an air conditioner, so please continue to take measures against heat stroke, such as frequent hydration, use the air conditioner at an appropriate temperature, and removing the mask when the risk of infection is low. .
In addition, let's work on heat stroke measures by calling out to family members who live away regularly.
