Hello Doctor: Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: How to Prevent the Danger?

Carbon monoxide is often referred to as the "silent killer." This colorless and odorless gas can accumulate in poorly ventilated spaces, particularly in bathrooms equipped with gas water heaters. Its effects can be severe, ranging from mild headaches to loss of consciousness, and even death.

In the show "Hello Doctor" on Tuesday, August 19, we will host Dr. Krishna Beedassy, Regional Public Health Superintendent at the Ministry of Health, and Giovanni Rezana, Station Fire Officer at the Mauritius Fire and Rescue Services. They will help us understand the risks, symptoms, and especially the preventive measures. Your calls are welcomed at 208 4999/5999. The show can be followed on RadioPlus as well as on the Facebook page defimedia.info and the TéléPlus channel on YouTube.
