Heat Wave and Human Health
Prolonged exposure to high temperatures during a heat wave can significantly impact human health. Heat waves often lead to heat-related illnesses such as heat cramps, heat exhaustion, heatstroke, and hyperthermia. Heat also has important indirect health effects, as it can alter human behavior, the transmission of diseases, health service delivery, air quality, etc. Adequate hydration, staying cool, and seeking shade are crucial to prevent heat-related health issues during extreme weather events.
