Please stay cool

The Rappahannock Health District and Virginia Department of Health recommends residents take the following actions to help stay cool and avoid heat related illness this summer:

Drink plenty of fluids- 2-4 glasses each hour. Tb replace salt and minerals lost from sweating, drink fruit juice or sports beverage during exercise or when working outside. (If you’re on a fluid-restricted diet, diuretics, or low-salt diet, ask your doctor)

Keep cool indoors. Stay in air-conditioning. Shower or take cool baths.

Plan outdoor activities around the heat. If you must go outside, go in the morning or at night when it’s cooler. Resting frequently when you are outside will give your body a chance to recover from the heat.

Avoid sunburn and wear light clothing. Sunburn limits your body’s ability to keep cool
