Heat can make people seriously ill. Knowing the signs saves lives.
⚠️Here’s what to watch out for:
Headache, dizziness, nausea, cramps, palpitations, excessive sweating or unusual tiredness.
Heat and air pollution together hit harder and for people with cardiovascular or respiratory conditions, the effects can be faster and more severe.
If you or someone you know starts to experience signs of heat stress:
❎ Slow down or stop activity, move to a cooling area, drink water. Seek help if your symptoms don’t improve.
🚨 Look for danger signs: severe headache, confusion, agitation, collapse, seizures, or not responding normally. This counts as a health emergency.
👀 If someone near you looks unwell, don’t leave them alone.
Move them to a cooling area immediately, and call for first aid or alert event staff.
🌡️ Check weather forecast and air quality levels.
