The tragedy of these incidents raises important questions. What can be done to avoid such accidents in the future? According to [primeros.de] (https://blog.primeros.de/badeunfaelle-toedliche- danger), swimming courses and safety rules are crucial measures to prevent bathing accidents. In particular, children who often cannot assess the dangers in the water should enjoy special protection.

security measures and clarification

bathing accidents can be initiated by improper behavior, high spirits or health problems. Essential safety precautions, such as the supervision of children when bathing, the use of swimming aids and adherence to warnings, are therefore essential. The DLRG also recommends swimming in guarded waters and completing regular first aid courses.

The number of bathing accidents has increased in recent years, which is why the seizure of forward -looking measures is all the more important. In memory of the deceased and affected, let us point out that prevention is the key to secure bathing pleasure.
