People with a chronic medical condition are less likely to sense and respond to changes in temperature. Also, they may be taking medications that can worsen the impact of extreme heat. People in this category need the following information. Closely monitor people who depend on you for their care: 1️⃣ Are they drinking enough water? 2️⃣ Do they have access to air conditioning? 3️⃣ Do they know how to keep cool? Seek medical care immediately if you or someone you know experiences symptoms of heat-related illness. http://bit.ly/2b403Vy
