During the heat wave in France, many people entered the cooling water. But the high temperatures also drove up the number of bathing deaths. More than 100 people died in June.
Between June 1 and July 2 there were 429 bad accidents with 109 bathing deaths in France, as the health authorities and the Water Watch announced in Paris. The number of bad accidents increased by 95 percent compared to the same period last year and that of the Badsterfaren by 58 percent. 19 of the Badsterfalken were children and adolescents.
The triggers are the high temperatures since the center of the population that had been attracted to the water. 60 percent of fatal bad accidents in France took place in rivers and waters, as the authorities said.
That is why prevention must be improved and more warned of the dangers of swimming in rivers and lakes that increased due to the consumption of alcohol. Many beaches in France are followed in summer by life -commuters, and this is usually not the case with often unofficial swimsuit in the interior.
