How people with serious medical conditions can prepare in case of an emergency, and practicing water safety
On this edition of KBOO News in Depth:
KBOO's Lexus Ponce interviews nurse practitioner Martha Beach about how people with serious medical conditions can prepare in the face of more frequent emergencies like wildfires.
Then, KBOO Reporter Onyx speaks with Tom Conning from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers about the importance of water safety in the late spring and early summer. USACE data shows 94% of drowning victims are male, but a simple precaution like wearing a life jacket can be life saving.
