What should I not do to escape from the fire after the earthquake?

When fleeing from the fire after the earthquake, you should not leave in an orderly way. Don't rush to each other and trample on each other, causing suffocation and death.

Try to use balconies and windows to escape. It is best to find a rope or tear pieces to form a rope and slide down the balcony and window of the next floor. Generally, the speed of fire spreading upward is much faster than downward, so you should choose downward when you escape, and don't go upward unless you have to.

If you live in a low-rise building during the earthquake, you should escape from the room along the corridor, find an open space, and lie down after making sure there are no trees, telephone poles and other things around. If it is high-rise, it is recommended to hide in the bathroom. If it is in a relatively small room, if it is under the table, it can be hidden under the table. After the first earthquake, you can escape along the stairs immediately. Remember, never take the elevator to escape in an earthquake, there is a danger of power failure at any time.

Key points of avoiding fire

1. First of all, calm down. If the fire is not big, we can take measures to put it out as soon as possible. If the fire is fierce, call the police at the first time and evacuate quickly.

2. The evacuation direction should be determined according to the wind direction when the fire occurs. Before the fire spreads, leave the fire area quickly against the wind. Generally speaking, when the fire floor is above your own floor, you should run downstairs quickly. When you escape, you should pay attention to closing the doors and windows on the passage to prevent and delay the flow of smoke to the escape passage.

3. Fire smoke has the characteristics of high temperature and high toxicity, and it is easy to cause respiratory system burns or poisoning after inhalation. So cover your nose and mouth with a wet towel when you escape, and try to avoid shouting loudly to prevent smoke from entering your mouth. You can also find water to wet your clothes and a cloth to cover your nose and mouth. When passing through the dense smoke area, you should move forward in the lowest position or prone position as much as possible. Be careful. Breathe small and shallow.
