Ingat, PUPians!

Mga PUPians,

Laging tatandaan:

Kapag may lindol, mahalagang manatiling kalmado at iwasan ang pag-panic upang masiguro ang kaligtasan. Agad na gawin ang "Drop, Cover, and Hold"—umupo o dumapa sa sahig, magtago sa ilalim ng matibay na kasangkapan o protektahan ang ulo at leeg, at hawakan nang mahigpit ang inyong pinagtataguan hanggang sa huminto ang pagyanig. Iwasan ang mga bintana, salamin, at mabibigat na bagay na maaaring bumagsak.

Huwag tumakbo palabas habang may pagyanig, dahil mas ligtas ang manatili sa loob hanggang sa humupa ang lindol. Pagkatapos ng lindol, suriin ang kaligtasan ng sarili at ng mga nasa paligid, at magbigay ng paunang lunas kung kinakailangan.

Maingat na lumikas patungo sa mga ligtas na lugar na malayo sa mga gusali at poste. Huwag kalimutang makinig at sundin ang mga abiso mula sa mga awtoridad para sa karagdagang impormasyon at gabay sa susunod na mga hakbang.
