Surge in Cold-Related Injuries Expected as Freezing Temperatures Hit Denver

As temperatures plummet in Denver, health officials are raising alarms about a potential spike in cold-related injuries. Last year, Denver Health reported treating over 200 individuals suffering from conditions such as frostbite and hypothermia during similar cold snaps. The emergency room is bracing for an influx of patients as the region faces another round of frigid weather.

Cold weather can pose serious health risks, particularly for vulnerable populations, including the elderly and those with pre-existing health conditions. Experts urge residents to take precautions, such as dressing in layers, covering exposed skin, and limiting time spent outdoors during extreme cold.

Additionally, the community is reminded to check on neighbors and loved ones who may be at risk. Emergency services are prepared to respond to increased calls related to cold injuries, but prevention remains the best strategy. As the weekend approaches, staying informed and cautious is essential for everyone in the area.
