ABOUT
Scorpions represent a contradiction within the human mind. It is true that a few species of scorpion are venomous enough to cause harm to us and in rare cases death. However, at the same time they are a vital component of those natural systems that give us life!
This Essential Scorpion Sting First Response Presentation is based upon some of the content from Jonathan's new book, Essential Scorpion Sting First Response. It offers a new and innovative science-based first response framework that addresses the burden of scorpion stings in Southern Africa across all levels of society. This framework reduces the chance of being stung by a scorpion, and ensures the best possible outcome for stings in humans and animals.
This event is suitable for all ages. Valuable insight for anyone who enjoys the great outdoors. Copies of Essential Scorpion Sting First Response Book will be available for purchase at the event.
