Over the night of 8-9 October 2022 a rainfall-induced disaster struck the town of Las Tejerías in Venezuela, 30 km from Caracas. At least 30 dead so far and 54 missing. This is the same system that hit us. We not so far from a disaster like this.

This is something for us to be aware of locally when a disaster destroys regular communication and supply systems for a prolonged period. Our health care and clean water supply already either strained or very poor, when a hurricane or other scale disaster hits us this is what going to happen here.

Florida flesh-eating illness cases spike after Hurricane Ian

Officials say Lee County, where the category four storm made landfall on 28 September, has recorded 29 illnesses and four deaths owing to the bacteria.

All but two cases were diagnosed after the hurricane.

Vibrio vulnificus infections can be caused after bacteria enters the body through open cuts.

The bacteria lives in warm brackish water, like standing floodwaters.

"The Florida Department of Health in Lee County is observing an abnormal increase in cases of Vibrio vulnificus infections as a result of exposure to the floodwaters and standing waters following Hurricane Ian," a spokesperson at the county health department said on Monday.

The statement called on residents to "always be aware of the potential risks associated when exposing open wounds, cuts, or scratches on the skin to warm, brackish, or salt water".

"Sewage spills, like those caused from Hurricane Ian, may increase bacteria levels," the statement continued. "As the post-storm situation evolves, individuals should take precautions against infection and illness caused by Vibrio vulnificus."

^^ You may as well add cholera to that list. It's a significant contributor to mortality in the aftermath of a flood or hurricane.

there should be some OSHA protocols implemented especially for older workers than require breaks- and especially if there is a Hot Spell alert from Met Office no one should have to work during the hottest hours from 11am-2pm. because heat exhaustion could lead to heat stroke which is a medical emergency.

OSHA can only recommend.
A responsible employer would provide electrolytes, mandate 10-15 minute breaks per hour, and a cool place to take these breaks.

Lol... that not gonna happen in sweet tnt.
Is actually the opposite, especially for construction workers. Lots of time was lost over the last few weeks with rain. Men working longer hours to make up time and meet deadlines.

It does happen, the key words being "responsible employers"
