How to prevent drowning?

It is very important to prevent drowning, especially for children and people unfamiliar with waters. Here are some suggestions:

Supervise children: Never let children move around the water alone, even if it is just a small pool or bathtub.

Learn to swim: Learning to swim as early as possible is a very effective preventive measure. Participate in professional swimming courses to ensure that children master basic swimming skills.

Provide appropriate buoyancy devices: For people unfamiliar with water, such as children or adults who can't swim, provide appropriate buoyancy devices, such as life jackets, to increase their safety in water.

Abide by safety regulations: in swimming pools, beaches or other waters, you must abide by relevant safety regulations and warnings, such as areas where swimming is prohibited and places where diving is prohibited.

Pay attention to the weather and water conditions: avoid swimming in bad weather, pay attention to the tides and currents in the water, and choose a relatively safe place to swim.

Learn to save yourself: learn some basic self-help skills, such as floating and breaststroke, which can help you in an emergency.

Stay alert: whether in swimming pools, rivers, lakes or beaches, you should stay alert and always pay attention to the surrounding situation to avoid accidents.

Avoid swimming under the influence of alcohol or drugs: don't try swimming under the influence of alcohol or drugs, which may reduce your judgment and reaction speed.

Be prepared in advance: before water activities, make sure to have appropriate life-saving equipment and communication tools in case of emergency.

Receive formal training: If you are a person who often moves in the water, it may be helpful to receive some training in water safety and rescue.

Please take these precautions seriously, they can save lives in an emergency. If you encounter a dangerous situation in the water, please call for help as soon as possible and take appropriate self-help measures.
