Heat Stroke Hits Karachi !!

Ramadan Mubarak to my fellow brothers and sisters!!

This post is rather a sad one to announce about my city..
With a heavy heart, I write this post about the heat stroke that surrounds Karachi.

Karachi! It is a city known as "The City of lights" on account of its high life and people that reside in this particular city. It could be correct as well if I refer "was" in context to it being city of lights.

Heat Stroke basically happens to a person if the body temperature rises  above 105 F. The recent heat wave has taken away 700 lives and many more are at stake, Each day, each hour a person gets admitted to hospital as a result of heat stroke.

At this situation, what can I, a normal resident do?
This situation can happen at any city and one must always be prepared for it.

Starting off, there are some prevention needed to be taken in order to safe yourself
*Stay Hydrated
*Avoid Fast Foods
*Have minimal sun exposure
*Keep yourself cool constantly via a fan or sprinkler
*Never Panic when you are suffocating, rather take short breaths to keep yourself calm
*Keep your body covered
*Do not bath right after you enter your home

However, If you know some one who has a heat stroke, you can
*Fan them
*Keep their feet elevated from ground
*Sprinkle water over them timely
* Damp a towel and put it on their body
*Put ice packs over exposed body

It is good to care for others. Fill empty mineral bottles and circulate them on the streets to the working class as they are in need of water the most. Other than that, you can donate water bottles, ice packs, ORS sachets to places where heat stroke camps are located. You can also lifts to people walking on the streets to save them. Every action counts people!

Remember to plant trees and save our ecosystem!!
We are our own strength!!
