Sadly, most fire dept calls are medical and, in big cities, most of them are drug ODs. This is going to greatly increase the risk to our brave first responders. Glad you got training on it, MH. The chance of inadvertently getting a whiff can put you down is bad (and very sad) news.
We’re a small rural dept in the mountains east of Albuquerque. most of out calls are medical—a lot of old folks around here, including most of us.
A few years ago, we had a meth lab right around the corner from where I live. The State police called us in just in case. Were suited up in full bunker gear with charged hoses. They found booby traps, but nothing went off.
Life is interesting sometimes.
