Northeast Mexico is experiencing an intense heatwave, with temperatures reaching 45 degrees Celsius. The National Meteorological System advises residents to avoid prolonged sun exposure and stay hydrated.
Health authorities emphasize the importance of recognizing heatstroke symptoms, as delayed awareness can be dangerous. Adequate hydration is crucial during outdoor activities.
Oral rehydration solution (ORS), containing salts and glucose, is recommended for effective rehydration, especially during heatstroke. ORS packets are available for free at national health system clinics and hospitals.
