Waarschuwingsniveau luchtweginfecties stijgt van code geel naar oranje | VRT NWS: nieuws
De Risk Management Group (RMG) van de FOD Volksgezondheid verhoogt het waarschuwingsniveau voor luchtweginfecties van code geel naar code oranje. Dat meldt de RMG donderdag. De nadruk ligt op de basisaanbevelingen, goede verluchting en ventilatie, en het dragen van een mondmasker op drukke plaatsen en bij contacten met zorgverleners. Code oranje betekent een hoge circulatie van luchtwegkiemen met belangrijke druk op het zorgsysteem. Elk jaar rond deze tijd verwachten we een piek van luchtweginfecties.

If early derails are correct, this happened because of sparklers setting extremely flammable ceiling foam on fire.
In other words, what caused The Station nightclub fire in the US - twenty-three years ago.
Safety rules are written in blood.
