Heat stress is a leading cause of weather-related deaths and can exacerbate underlying illnesses. The city of São Paulo, Brazil, is involving citizens in an innovative project to combat the health dangers of excessive heat. Jacqui Thornton reports: spkl.io/601371R7T

🏟️ Protect health from heat at mass gatherings. Major sporting, religious, and cultural events bring people together. But they can also increase the risk of heat-related illness due to: ☀️ Prolonged outdoor exposure 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Crowd density 🚱 Limited access to cooling areas, drinking water, toilets and hand hygiene facilities, and medical services at peak times Event organizers can prepare. ✅ When risks rise and heat alerts go out, protective measures kick in immediately, such as providing additional drinking water, cooling areas, queue management, staffing, and clear public messaging. WHO supports organizers, federations, and host governments to protect attendees, workers, and officials during extreme heat bit.ly/WHOBeatTheHeat #BeatTheHeat
