What Should You Do In A Nuclear Attack?
A guide to survive
We all know the war in Ukraine is a real threat; with many innocent people already losing their lives, we pray for a peaceful resolution, no matter how faith that may seem at this moment in time.
A threat that we have now become aware of is the nuclear one; many of us are worried, and for very good reason; whilst this article I hope is never used, I do have some knowledge on how to survive a nuclear attack.
When you hear the sirens
DO NOT RUN — you will be exposed straight away, and the roads will be gridlocked with people trying to escape. So what should you do?
- Find shelter; your best initial defence would be to find an underground shelter such as a substation; if not, find a strong concrete building with thick walls; always go to the basement if it has one; you may survive the initial blast.
- After the initial blast, stay inside for at least 72 hours; this will give the atmosphere enough time to settle down, which will increase your survival rate.
- Once you can go out, try to stockpile food, tins of packaged food only, leave everything else. Do not attempt to eat or drink damaged goods.
- Turn on your phone, radio, etc. Try to communicate with any other survivors and listen out for news.
- Cover up before you go out, with as much protection as you can have, then look for information and a potential route out of the affected area. Time is of the essence, so do this quickly, then get back underground until you have a plan.
- When you are ready to leave, search for others, make friends, share information; however, do not get too close; they could be infected and pass that onto you.
- Head south, a nuclear winter could kill you because temperatures go below minus, so ironically, you are looking for the warmest place, furthest away from the blast as you can get.
I hope this information will never have to be used, but it is worth retaining it or saving it, should the worst happen.
