End of the World: A Survival Guide during a nuclear war

Will the End of the World in fact or not, we find only 21 of December. his script also ambiguous, a variety of options, each being prepared (if in preparation) to one that considers the most likely.

Even though I personally did not want to believe that in just a waiting for something terrible couple of weeks we have, no, no, yes, and will fly idea: instead of Do gather emergency backpack just in case, which is all that is necessary to hold at least a week in a apocalypse.

However, very many approaches to this issue is much more serious: to build an ark, or underground bunkers that are filled with groceries for the year ahead. In this article the doomsday scenario tentatively called "nuclear disaster", in it some useful tips on the case, if you do decide to thoroughly prepare for the day X. There is still time.

Thus, the beginning of the third world nuclear war. And what do you do?

Step One: cidet home or run?

Firstly, it is necessary to evaluate the place where you are at the moment. If it is very far from the alleged center of the explosion, stay here and go to step two.

And if you already have a well-equipped bunker, why have you reading this article?!

When the perceived threat in close proximity to you, then you need to run very quickly. If you have left a couple of days, then plan the right thing in order to achieve a less safe place in time. There is nothing worse than getting stuck somewhere on the road. Analyze what obstacles can be waiting for you on the way to the selected place of shelter, and get directions right. This will allow you to hit the road at the right time and to accurately calculate the amount of supplies needed for the journey.

Step two: food and essentials

Once you decide to place your stay, make sure that everyone in your group (you're not in splendid isolation are saving lives?) Do their job. Until someone is engaged in preparation of food and water, someone else has to work on the right equipment housing, etc.

When harvesting products, look for those that are ready-to-eat: cereal, bars, dried fruit, canned food. You can take something perishable, but not too much. Preference is given to products that will be stored for a long time:

• rice, beans, flour, potatoes, pasta, oatmeal and other cereals;
• powdered milk;
• frozen fruit and vegetable mixture ready frozen minced;
• sugar and honey;
• vegetable oil and soda;
• bottled water.

Water - the most important thing. Take the maximum as you can lay down in their home. Water will never be much, rather, it is never enough.

Now, about the essentials. Here is a list will be more impressive:

• disposable tableware and paper towels (you must understand that you have enough water for washing and dishwashing?)
• Opener for cans;
• matches, lighters;
• Large buckets with lids, garbage bags (you may need to perform this kind of toilet);
• toilet paper, wet wipes, diapers for children;
• Scotch (he will definitely come in handy!);
• mop, vacuum cleaner and cleaning products (including ordinary bleach), to help you cope in the radiation pollution in the home and in the case of bacteria spread of the virus;
• flashlights, batteries, radio (to listen to the news);
• alcohol, hand sanitizers, and hydrogen peroxide;
• medicines that you are taking the time;
• first aid kit with basic medicines and first aid;
• fire extinguishers;
• masks;
• Geiger counter to determine the level of radiation;
• filters for water;
• generator;
• weapons (this is the case, if the carousing looters).

The next step - to maintain security cover.

Step Three: how to equip its shelter

No matter how dangerous radiation, over time it decreases. A couple of days after a nuclear explosion, radioactive fallout would contain only 1/100 of the initial dose of gamma radiation. However, other types of radiation are more dangerous for a long time. And here's what to do:

Remain in the cellar. If you have it - this is the best place to hide.

Reinforce the wall, connect your home to the outside world. Put anything: books, cabinets and other furniture. Between you and the outside world should be virtually impenetrable wall.

Any cracks in the house must be closed. Particularly large, you can pierce the rags or foam rubber, seal the sealants them, cover with tape. Do not leave radioactive dust no chance to get into your home.

Get more than ever before! Vacuum every day! Ten times a day! Before eating, wipe all kitchen utensils, jars of preserves.
In the house there should be no dust at all! it absorbs harmful particles that you inhale;

If the house has air conditioning, it must be configured for recycling. The air is fresh and does not need external ventilation.

Step Four: What to do if you have been exposed to radiation?

If, despite all precautions, you still received a dose of radiation, it is necessary to do the following:

Escape from this place. If the exposure you have shelter, because of the fact that it was partially destroyed by explosion or due to the fact that not all gaps have been closed, then you need to leave immediately. If the exposure was subjected to a small part of the house, then carefully isolate it from the rest of the space.

Get rid of clothes, which was subjected to radiation. Seal the bag, throw outside the home, burn in the end.

Wash thoroughly with warm water. Very carefully. Rub the skin until it turns red. You do not want to infect their loved ones?

Take potassium iodide. It will reduce the impact of symptoms and prevent the uptake of radioactive iodine by the thyroid gland.

In conclusion…

Nuclear war, in fact, is not the worst scenario. Everything will be fine, if you try not to panic, use common sense and stay indoors.

It will be difficult after the main consequences will be. Life will never be the same: not to be missed food and other things, banks, police, medical institutions, Fire certainly will not work for some time, many will radically change jobs, change the value money…

At that time, you will experience the war in hiding, you need to think about how you will live after how you will protect yourself and your family, and you have to fend for themselves. War - a terrible, crazy event that even normal people doing a little bit nuts.

Unite with the strong and strong-willed people who were close to you, in one area, or even a house. Together, you will be able to rebuild what has been destroyed. Time will pass and everything will get better anyway, the main thing - do not give up, and everything will be fine!
