What to do to survive when an earthquake occurs?
An earthquake can strike suddenly, leaving many people panicking and not knowing what to do. Here are 8 ways to stay safe when an earthquake strikes.
 |
| If you are indoors and you hear the building shaking, objects falling or banging, do not panic but try to calm yourself down. Do not try to run out of the building when an earthquake is happening, but find a place to hide, such as under a table, crouch down and hold your head. If there is no table, find a corner or a high wall that can cover your body to hide when an earthquake occurs because in reality, falling objects during an earthquake are often not vertical. |
 |
| If you are outside, be prepared to help others. Avoid power lines, moving vehicles, construction sites, etc. and seek shelter. |
 |
| When in a car, pull over to the side of the road, where there is as much open space as possible, and stay in the car. Avoid parking under overpasses, buildings, or trees when an earthquake occurs. Do not stop in the middle of the road immediately after feeling an earthquake, as this may cause an unusual accident for you and the cars behind you. |
 |
| If you are on the beach, move quickly to higher ground because earthquakes can easily cause tsunamis. |
 |
| If you are in a stadium, it is best to stay where you are, do not panic in a crowd. Find a place to lie down, cover your head and neck with your arms. |
 |
| If in a wheelchair, lock it and use your hands or any available object such as a book or pillow to cover your head and neck. |
 |
| If you are in bed when an earthquake occurs, stay still and use a pillow to protect your head. In case there are objects that can easily fall or collapse on you, immediately move away from the bed and find shelter as mentioned above. |
 |
| If trapped under debris: Do not light a fire to avoid a lack of oxygen. Limit movement to avoid injury and stirring up dust that could attack your respiratory tract. Cover your mouth with a handkerchief or clothing./. |
