    Heat waves are among the deadliest natural hazards. A little prep can keep you and your loved ones safe. Use our "5 Steps to Ready": ☀️ 1. Make a plan Know where to go to stay cool if your home loses power, and check on family and neighbors most at risk. 💧 2. Build a kit Keep drinking water, electrolytes, and extra batteries on hand. Battery-powered fans help during outages. 💊 3. Prepare your medications Keep a week's supply with you and ask your doctor how heat may affect your meds or health conditions. 🧊 4. Stay cool Wear lightweight clothing, limit time outdoors during peak heat, and drink plenty of water. Use AC or a cooling center when possible. 📱 5. Stay informed Know the signs of heat-related illness, enable phone alerts, and monitor local forecasts so you can act quickly. More info: americares.org/ExtremeHeat

    An Ebola outbreak in a remote part of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has claimed over one hundred lives and sparked a global health emergency. Americares is working with local nonprofits in the DRC to help prevent the disease's spread through water and sanitation improvements, public health education, and training for health workers on infection prevention, case management, and risk communication. We have a long history responding to Ebola outbreaks, including the 2014-2016 West Africa epidemic that killed over 11,000 people—the deadliest in history. Americares already funds water, sanitation, and hygiene efforts in conflict-affected health centers in North Kivu's Mutwanga Health Zone.
