How Disaster Relief Has Adapted to Covid-19
From big companies to local businesses, the Covid-19 pandemic has affected hundreds of establishments and operations, including disaster relief groups in the country such as the American Red Cross, Team Rubicon, and AmeriCorps Disaster Response Team. Earlier this year when the tornado and flood season emerged, disaster relief operations were conducted and new protocols were observed for the safety of the staff, victims and volunteers as the virus started to spread all throughout the country.
How the American Red Cross adapted to Covid-19
Adapting to the pandemic even when disastrous storms passed through the South in April, the American Red Cross was determined to keep helping people by preparing and providing shelters, with hundreds of volunteers to make sure they kept up with the latest protocols. In a span of 48-hours, more than 100 tornadoes that passed through Texas all the way to Maryland were tracked earlier this year, with at least 34 people dead and hundreds left homeless.
The Natural Disaster You’re Not Thinking About
“It won’t happen to me…” this is what most people say in regards to preparing for a disaster. Until it happens to them, they don’t really think about preparing for an emergency.
Like it or not, disasters are inevitable. Having a foolproof plan during emergency situations can be a critical element in keeping you and your family safe. Below are tips you can follow to ensure your safety in the event of a natural disaster.
Know the different types of natural disasters and what to expect
Natural disasters come in many forms and each type may require different preparations. Determine the type of disaster your area is prone to having and make plans accordingly.
• Hurricanes and Storms: In the US, these natural disasters usually happen between June and November in the East coasts and Gulf coasts.
• Floods: If you’re living in low-lying areas, flooding may be a possibility.
• Earthquakes: No area is really safe from earthquakes and they can happen at any time.
• Tornadoes: The tornado season is usually between March and August.
• Wildfires: Southern California is prone to wildfires because of their forested areas and lack of precipitation.
