We share the updated information on the times, epicenter and magnitude of the tremors that were registered in Chile today, Saturday June 10, according to the National Seismological Center.

Where and at what time was the last tremor felt in Chile? Several earthquakes have been recorded since the beginning of today, Saturday June 10. Given the geographical conditions of the national territory, tremors can manifest at any time and place; so it is of the utmost importance to stay abreast of recent movements. For this reason, we share the reports of the from the University of Chile.

What to do in case of an earthquake in Chile

He of the Ministry of Health of Chile has raised a series of recommendations that we will list below:

  • Keep calm, panic also occurs when people do not know what to do, therefore, put into practice the plan you made with your family, at work or in the educational unit.
  • If you are in an adobe or informally built building, you must leave immediately once the earthquake is perceived to a safe area outside, given the risk of the building collapsing. During the evacuation, remain calm and remain aware of the conditions around you.
  • In an earthquake resistant building, locate yourself in a place of seismic protection. You must stay away from glass, windows and any element that can fall on you. Take cover and secure yourself under a firm element such as a wooden table or desk, if not possible, do it next to it and to the side of a structural wall.
  • Do not use the elevators or the stairwell. Stay inside the property if it is earthquake resistant, do not go outside. Do not go down the stairwell or the vertical safety zone, since the latter is only suitable for evacuation in case of fire.
  • Do not go under a door frame, since it is not a safe place, because it acts as a dissipator of the force of the earthquake, works as if it were a fuse and has the possibility of presenting damage to its structure or collapsing.
  • If you are in a wheelchair, go to a place of seismic protection. If this is not possible, brake the wheels and protect your head and neck with your arms.
