Discussing Pedeatric Heatstrokes with Laura Dunn of the NHTSA
Global warming makes heatstrokes even more of a concern for children left alone in cars according to Laura Dunn of the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration. May 1st was National Heatstroke Prevention Day. The government agency is shifting their focus to a new campaign centered on raising awareness about pediatric vehicular heatstroke. On average 37 children die every year because of heatstrokes sustained in a parent or guardian's car. The new campaign aims to bring that number as close to zero as possible.
