What actions should we take during an earthquake?

This blog is a part of a group project in City university of Hong Kong GE1313 Earthquake. 

If you are indoor:

• Stay inside until the earthquake stops
• Stay away from the glass
• Stay away from large vertical furnitures
• Stay under shelter such as a table or a desk and hold tight to it with one hand
• Hold on your head and neck if there is no shelter
• Drop onto your hands and knees
• If you are in a stadium or a theatre, stay at your position and cover your head with your arms
• DON'T use the elevator
• DON'T stand at the doorway
• Doorway in modern buildings are usually weaker than doorway in the past
