Many highways in Qinghai Province were temporarily closed, and some trains were delayed. At present, the inbound and outbound flights of Xining Caojiapu International Airport are basically normal and have not been affected by the weather.
In addition, heavy snow cools down, and people tend to turn on the air conditioner in the car to keep warm while driving. In this regard, Sun Tongwen, director of the Emergency Medicine Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, reminded that when the vehicle engine is working, if the fuel combustion is not complete, a high concentration of carbon monoxide will be produced. When the car is stopped, the heating continues to be turned on, and the windows are closed, the carbon monoxide from the engine accumulates in the car, and the concentration gradually increases, making it very easy to develop carbon monoxide poisoning. In recent years, carbon monoxide poisoning in cars has been a common occurrence.
Sun Tongwen reminded that when returning home to drive, try not to let the engine idle for a long time. When the car is stopped, do not leave the air conditioner on for too long, and even when driving, you should always open the windows to allow the air inside and outside the car to generate convection. When you realize that carbon monoxide poisoning may occur in the car, you should turn off the engine as soon as possible, open the windows and doors, and leave the person in time.
