So if you have a home pool it's very dangerous for young children. And the Coast Guard approved life jacket. You need to have flotation devices around the water so that the children can be rescued. There's also something called near drowning. A lot of people have never heard of this, but that's when a person has gone under the water and a rescuer has made that person pulled a mouth, reconcentrated that many times, and because of that, they're alive. Remember, many month that you need to think about water safety. You should think about it every time that you're near water. Whether you're fishing, swimming, whatever it might be. You need to be water wise and watch out for children, teenagers and even adults many into the water and they can't swim well.

Rip currents cause an estimated 100 deaths each year in the United States. In 2021, five of these deaths were on the Gulf Coast. Rip currents are the number one ruthery-related killer at the beaches along the northern Gulf Coast. The number of rip current fatalities on these beaches is more than the fatalities of flooding, tornadoes, lightning, and tropical storms or hurricanes combined. Learn the facts. Before heading out to the beach, check current beach conditions and know what each flag means. Always swim near a lifeguard. Rip currents are narrow currents that flow away from the beach. If you notice you're being pulled away from the beach and are swimming and getting tired, you may be in a rip current. Think of it like a treadmill that you can't turn off. You want to step to the side of it. Don't swim against the current. Try to swim across it in a direction following the shoreline. Rip currents do not pull you under, but may take you as far out as a football field so people can tire quickly. The most important thing is to stay calm. If you can't escape the current, float or calmly tread water. Wave for help if you can. Rip current's strength eventually subsides and may even take you closer to shore. If you see someone caught in a rip current, call 911 or get a lifeguard and throw something that floats towards the victim. For more information, please visit www.visitalbeaches.com slash safety.
