N-95 mask, gloves, goggles, and gown are the minimum Standard Precautions an EMT should take when transporting a patient infected with Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS).

Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) is a viral disease of the respiratory system brought on by the Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV), which was initially discovered in Saudi Arabia in 2012.

Frequent coughing, fever, and shortness of breath are typical MERS symptoms.

Although pneumonia is common, MERS patients may not always have the illness. Additionally, among MERS patients, gastrointestinal symptoms such as diarrhoea have been documented.

Examples of personal protective equipment that shields the wearer from liquid or particle contamination of the face include surgical and N95 masks.

Some other precautions include using gloves and other type of PPE includes goggles and gown.

Obstruction in Adults and Children - Procedures and Differences
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Obstructions are different in adults and children because first of all children have a smaller airway meaning that some objects may cut off there breathing more easily. Also children are more likely to get objects stuck in there airways since they don’t know any better. To retrieve an object from a child’s airway you should make sure they are breathing first and then use special tools to go in the child’s throat and retrieve the object. For an adult you will do the same thing but use a different tool. If the adult is able to still breath, eat, and swallow correctly the object will most likely just pass through the system at some point but it’s best to remove it.

Scrat [10]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, you did not include any text, context, article, or any other useful reference to know who is Lewis and his context.

However, we can help you to answer in general terms.

When hearing the emergency tornado and warning announcement, you immediately have to take the proper actions included in your emergency plan.

According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), it is highly recommended that people and businesses previously develop an emergency plan in ca of a tornado.  This way, when a situation like this happens, yo have already know the proper steps to take with calm, instead of panicking for the emergency.

One of the most important things of the plan is to include a place to shelter during the tornado. So you elaborate a risk assessment, prepare a shelter, have enough food and water to spend a couple of days in there, evacuate your home or workplace on time, and lockdown.
