The authorities recalled the importance of having adequate footwear, since many attentions were due to foot injuries. They also remembered not to expose older adults or children due to high temperatures.
About; Dr. Hernán Martínez, opined: “many people did not listen to the recommendations and brought children and the elderly. On a tour at dawn we saw many children sleeping on the floor. Exposing a young child to this type of walking is not recommended.”
