The Osakidetza Emergency Service has treated 10 people affected by the high temperatures recorded in the Basque Country until 7 p.m. this Tuesday, nine of whom have been evacuated by ambulance to hospitals or health centres.

The Department of Health of the Basque Government recalls the importance of following the recommendations of the 2025 Heat Plan, which aims to prevent and reduce the impact of extreme temperatures on health, especially during the warmest months.

The Plan focuses on the protection of the most vulnerable groups: children under four years of age, the elderly, pregnant women, persons with chronic illnesses and persons engaged in physical activity abroad.
