Emergency preparedness: How to survive a nuclear attack

: Natural News; 16 July 2024; Hits: 18

Nuclear attacks may sound far-fetched, but preppers understand that they need to prepare for the worst. After all, nuclear attacks don't seem that unlikely if you've been monitoring the news and are worried about the still ongoing Russia-Ukraine war.

And with political leaders around the world making nuclear threats, it’s worth thinking about preparing for a nuclear attack, even if it never ever happens. (h/t to MyPatriotSupply.com)

Monitor recent talk of nuclear threats

The Nuclear Threat Initiative (NTI) has warned that "regional tensions, the proliferation of nuclear weapons and materials to make them – along with terrorism and new technologies – mean the risk of a nuclear weapon or device being used is rising."

The NTI also said that governments’ ability to "manage increasingly complex global security risks is eroding."

As of 2022, there are 13,100 nuclear weapons in the world held in at least nine countries. If one of these nuclear weapons is accidentally or purposely used, it would cause serious devastation.

Nuclear weapons are the most dangerous weapons on earth and while they haven’t been used in warfare since 1945, political leaders are mentioning nuclear weapons more.

The United Nations (UN) has also warned that nuclear war is "back within the realm of possibility" after Russia made it known that its nuclear forces were on alert amid the ongoing war with Ukraine.

Discuss the emergency plans with your family

Before SHTF, talk to your family about a possible nuclear attack.

Here are some important points to discuss with them:

Get inside

If there is a threat of nuclear attack, get inside. It's best to get as much distance between you and the fallout particles as possible.

This means going to a fallout shelter, underground, or a basement area if possible.

If you can’t go below, head to interiors with heavier and thicker materials, such as buildings made of concrete or bricks. Turn off appliances that allow in the air from outside, such as air conditioners and fireplaces.

Stay inside

Everyone must stay inside during the attack and for at least 24 hours after, but it could be significantly longer.

Radioactive materials grow weaker over time and you should stay inside until the levels aren’t as dangerous. If they are not at home, this also means leaving your children at school or daycare until it is safe.

Monitor the news

While you are waiting inside a safe location, use your emergency weather radio to listen for updates on what is happening outside your home. (Related: Understanding different types of emergencies and how to prepare for them.)

Essential supplies for surviving a nuclear attack

Just like when you are preparing for other types of emergencies, you need a stockpile of supplies for your family. This is crucial if plan on bugging in or waiting at home until it is safe to go outside.

According to the American Red Cross, staying inside for at least 24 hours can protect you and your family until it is safe to go outside. However, due to factors like your location and the source of the radiation, "local officials may advise to shelter in place for as long as a month."

This means you will need enough emergency supplies to shelter in place for one more or even longer, depending on the situation.

Before SHTF, stock up on long-term emergency food. Securely packaged emergency food, such as canned food or freeze-dried food will be safe to eat following a nuclear attack and can be cooked and rehydrated using water.

You should also invest in a home water filtration system. If a nuclear attack affects the municipal water supply, this ensures that your family still has safe drinking water, along with enough water for cooking and cleaning.

Other essentials include a first aid kit, along with any medication for family members with health conditions such as asthma or diabetes.

Lastly, you will need a way to stay tuned to the outside world. Invest in a solar-powered radio and charger.
