Excerpt:
"Yesterday Megan and I taught CPR to a group of University Students who have taken it upon themselves to form a Disaster Response team and are trying to amass skills and knowledge that will be of use to them and their communities. One of the boys, Hameed, is part of our informal “geek squad” at the Taj and wrote the previous post on this blog. Of the four he was the only one who spoke fully fluent English. Two could get by in English and the fourth spoke none, although he was fluent in Pashto, Dari, Urdu and Russian. Many Afghans in this area can speak and read (if they are literate) Pashto, Dari and Urdu. If they are in their forties or fifties, they can get by in Russian. The younger generation tends to know dabbling of English. Pashto is the main spoken language but Dari seeps in from the West, Urdu from the East, and Western Languages trickle in through the occupying armies stationed here.
The class was punctuated by Hameed’s rapid fire translation, side conversations in Pashto, and the boys wrestling matches as they were a little overenthusiastic when practicing the Heimlich maneuver on one another. The best part of the class was the myriad of questions the boys had, indicating both a sincere desire to learn skills applicable to disasters they had witnessed first hand, as well as exposing deep seated cultural difficulties that never arose in my numerous First Aid re-certification classes."

We Googled BFI Powder and it is discontinued but some online packets sell for $264.99USD🇺🇸 ($361.36CND)🇨🇦
This means we still have $180🇨🇦 worth still in this dispenser, and yes — it still works. And no, it's NOT for sale.
My dad gave me this package (or I stole it) in the 1940s when it cost $6.29
2 medics shooting the breeze before the inevitable shout goes up.
Lets hope we never need to rely on these rapid response guys but its comforting to know they are on hand.
Thanks Guys

The public health in emergencies programme provides training to volunteers in various aspects of emergency assistance in the immediate aftermath of disasters. This includes first aid and basic procedures such as mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, basic knowledge about common diseases and how to dispose of bodies.
Participants share this knowledge with the community through health information sessions and the provision of basic health care in ‘normal’ times.
Hena Acna Basar, a 32-year-old Bangladesh Red Crescent volunteer from Lota Baria in Barguna District, was able to use this knowledge in several critical situations. The latest one occurred two months ago when she rescued a boy who had just been pulled out of the water.
"I was doing chores and I heard someone crying. Some people were gathered near a pond, using traditional methods to treat my neighbours’ son, Manu, which is wrong. I cleaned his mouth and practised mouth-to-mouth resuscitation," she explains.
"I continued until he started breathing again, but he was still unconscious. I explained to them that it is not necessary to drain water from the stomach, even though that is the traditional way here in Bangladesh.
The boy survived, and later people thanked me. I knew how they felt, because when the cyclone hit in 2007 I was carrying my baby and I lost her in the water. I thought she was dead, but in fact she was alive and I am so grateful - she is now four years old and doing well. I think now I should help others learn these skills so that when a cyclone comes they can save people."
Hena participated in a public health in emergencies training as part of the Cyclone Sidr emergency operation.
