RE: Survival Kit Alarm

in STEEM FOR BETTERLIFE6 days ago

... I remember: it must have been a few years ago when in some local mountain region - Austria, Bavaria or Switzerland...? - the inhabitants of a few villages were cut off from the outside world for a while due to heavy snowfall. The access roads were all impassable; the most necessary supplies were organised by helicopter care packages. The students were given time off due to circumstances. It could have been a nice, relaxing time - it was about three weeks or so.

No. Because the mobile phone network had collapsed due to the snow load, there was no contact via social media. No Messenger, no Facebook group, no Tinder date. To my great shock, after two days (!) a drastic increase in emergency calls to suicide hotlines was reported. People were unable to cope with themselves even for a short, manageable period of time. Without words...
