Carbon Monoxide Kills Faster Than Hiv/aids.... by Kumashi2: 1:53pm On Jan 21, 2018 |
Something I witnessed this morning..... I boarded a car from choba (port harcourt) to bayelsa this morning. The vehicle took off from Rumuokoro. There were 2 guys already at the back seat and I joined them to make it 3. One of the guys was asleep when I entered. We proceeded With d journey. One person was sitting at the front seat. After about 12 kilometers, my eyes started peppering me and I started perceiving a choking smell. I perceived the smell was from the car exhaust (carbon monoxide). I immediately alerted the driver and asked him if his boot was opened or the car exhaust was leaking? He said yes that the boot (trunk) isn't closing proper. He pleaded we should please endure it. The passenger at the front seat said I should manage that I will soon drop that it nothing. I tried to endure for a while, but something came to my mind. The guy that was sleeping hasn't woken up, so I thought about the safety part of this guy. (I am a safety officer and a trained 1st aider). I tried to check for responsiveness but there was no pulse (checked through his neck and his wrist). I quickly alerted the driver and we parked. We brought the guy out and observed he was unconscious due to the smoke from the exhaust. We laid him properly. People were panicking. I immediately commenced Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and he responded within the 1st CPR cycle. After few minutes he was very ok. He then narrated that all he could remembered was that he started feeling a choking smell and that was all.... Please let's learn from this ... CARBON MONOXIDE KILLS FASTER THAN HIV/AIDS.... Most times IGNORANCE & NEGLIGENCE KILLS FASTER THAN WE THINK.... When you noticed something, please say or do something immediately.... |
