recently, in heilongjiang, a mother died of carbon monoxide poisoning while boiling chinese medicine for a friend at home. the daughter, as the plaintiff, sued yin, the friend who asked her mother to boil the medicine. the court held that although yin and the deceased were good friends, the two parties agreed to pay 100 yuan for every 10 sets of medicine, and there was an employment relationship. it was finally determined that although the deceased had a great fault and did not fulfill the duty of care, the defendant, as the employer, did not fulfill the duty of reminder. the court ruled that yin should bear 30% of the various expenses and compensate the plaintiff more than 230,000 yuan.

netizens debate: how to fulfill the obligation to remind

netizens also discussed this issue, and some netizens questioned how to fulfill the obligation to remind?

yun wuxin 45: if you pay an adult to boil medicine, how can you be considered to have "fulfilled your responsibility to remind" her to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning? similarly, if the person who helps you deliver something gets into a car accident on the road, do you also have to bear part of the responsibility for "not fulfilling your responsibility to remind"?

gemma_ju: how to remind someone if they "failed to fulfill their obligation to remind"? they have to keep an eye on them and remind them. how can you bear it yourself?

there is no sweetness to follow sister zhuo: she boiled the medicine at her own home, not at the defendant's home, and the two parties did not clearly agree on the working hours and working process. why is it considered an employment contract instead of a contract for work? if the two parties are in a contract relationship, and the defendant is not at fault, what responsibility does he have?

some people also think that it is best to boil the medicine before drinking it.

qlily丶: don’t hospitals have pre-cooked drinks in bags? just heat it up before drinking…

lbs_7: a dose of decocted medicine in the hospital costs 5 to 7 yuan, and an electric decocting pot costs about 150 yuan.

always be careful about carbon monoxide poisoning

in the traditional public perception, carbon monoxide poisoning mostly occurs in winter. in fact, even in summer, carbon monoxide poisoning cannot be ignored.

zhang zhichao, deputy chief physician at panlong rehabilitation medicine center of wuhan first hospital, said: "it's hot in the summer, and the air-conditioned room is relatively airtight. in such a closed environment, fuel consumption may reduce the oxygen concentration, and incomplete combustion of fuel will produce carbon monoxide, leading to carbon monoxide poisoning."

just last month, eight citizens in huangpi district, wuhan city, hubei province were admitted to the hospital due to carbon monoxide poisoning, which was caused by eating hot pot in a closed space.

after carbon monoxide poisoning

what first aid measures should be taken?

while ensuring your own safety, immediately open the windows for ventilation, quickly move the patient away from the poisoning site to a ventilated area, loosen the collar, remove foreign objects from the mouth and nose, keep the airway open, and keep warm.

immediately give artificial respiration and chest compression to patients with cardiopulmonary arrest. call 120 for prompt medical treatment and actively perform hyperbaric oxygen therapy to reduce the occurrence of delayed encephalopathy and central nervous system damage.

doctors remind: whether it is cold winter or hot summer, be sure to keep ventilation when using gas, and never close doors and windows tightly.
