Description
Super typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan) spared no one on its path—young and old, strong and weak, rich and poor, and even prisoners and men in uniform. It is a wakeup call to give safety a priority. Have a plan way ahead of a disaster or calamity. Knowledge and practice are essential for its implementation to work well. Therefore, listen to media broadcasts, attend seminar workshops, participate in fire and earthquake drills, be familiar with the barangay (barrio) warning and evacuation system, and read references about safety. Put food, water, and other emergency provisions that will last for 3 d in a handy survival bag ready for pick up anytime. Do not panic.
