Norrmal 911 services will be overwhelmed, and the waiting period for help may be from 24 hours to 3 days. Most of the deaths occur in the first 3 to 30 minutes. A study by the College of Emergency Surgeons found that about 40% of those who had a chance to survive in multi-casualaty events but died in the first hours or days, could have been kept alive by simple first aid actions, IF they were done soon. Disaster First Aid is designed to save those lives that are lost while waiting.
