泰国今夏恐现极端高温,最高气温或超52℃
泰国公共卫生部总干事阿查拉在7日举行的新闻发布会上表示,气象部门预计今年夏季泰国将会出现异常高温天气,最高气温将超过52摄氏度。
阿查拉指出,极端高温天气可能对健康造成严重影响,包括中暑、脱水、热痉挛和热衰竭。他呼吁公众采取预防措施,例如多喝水、避免在高温时段外出、穿宽松透气的衣服,以及注意补充电解质。
泰国气象局此前发布预警,预计今年夏季泰国将经历比往年更炎热的天气。气象局表示,受厄尔尼诺现象影响,泰国今年夏季的平均气温将比正常水平高出1-2摄氏度。
泰国国家灾害预防和减灾中心已发布高温预警,并呼吁各地方政府做好应对极端高温天气的准备。该中心建议公众在高温时段减少户外活动,并注意防暑降温。
此外,泰国卫生部还提醒公众注意蚊媒疾病的风险。高温潮湿的环境有利于蚊虫滋生,增加登革热、寨卡病毒和基孔肯雅热等蚊媒疾病的传播风险。
泰国卫生部建议公众采取措施防蚊,例如穿长袖长裤、使用蚊帐和驱蚊剂,以及及时清除积水。

Thailand is bracing for an extreme heatwave this summer, withtemperatures expected to exceed 52 degrees Celsius, the country’s Public Health Ministry warned on Thursday.
Public Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul told a news conference that the Meteorological Department is predicting unusually high temperatures this summer, with highs of over 52C possible.
Anutin warned that theextreme heat could have serious health impacts, including heatstroke, dehydration, heat cramps and heat exhaustion. He urged the public to take precautions, such as drinking plenty of water, avoiding going outside during the hottest hours of the day, wearing loose-fitting and breathable clothing, and replenishing electrolytes.
The Thai Meteorological Department has previously issued a warning that Thailand is likely to experience hotter-than-usual weather this summer. The department said that the average temperature this summer is expected to be 1-2 degrees Celsius higher than normal due to the El Nino phenomenon.
The Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation (DDPM) has issued aheatwave warning and urged local authorities to prepare for the extreme heat. The DDPM advised the public to limit outdoor activities during the hottest hours of the day and to take precautions to stay cool.
Meanwhile, the Ministry of Public Health also warned the public about the risk of mosquito-borne diseases. The hot and humid conditions are favorable for mosquito breeding, increasing the risk of mosquito-borne diseases such as dengue fever, Zika virus, and chikungunya.
The Ministry of Public Health advised the public to take measures to prevent mosquito bites, such as wearing long sleeves and pants, using mosquito nets and repellents, and promptly removing stagnant water.
