Carbon monoxide in two apartments
The emergency services confirmed the presence of carbon monoxide in two premises. This gas, known as the “silent killer,” is particularly dangerous because it is invisible and odorless. Poisoning can occur very quickly, often without clear warning symptoms.
Urgent recommendation for residents
Following the incident, an important safety recommendation was issued. Residents were advised not to use gas stoves until they had been thoroughly inspected by specialists. This measure is intended to prevent similar situations in the future.
How can you stay safe?
Experts remind us that prevention is crucial in such cases. Regular inspections of gas installations and the installation of carbon monoxide detectors can save lives. It is also important to respond immediately to any worrying signs, such as dizziness, weakness or shortness of breath.
