Meghalt egy strandoló szerdán Dél-Karolinában, miután az erős szél felkapott egy homokba leszúrt napernyőt és az eltalált egy 63 éves strandolót nőt.
Az napernyőt a szél kifújta a rögzítéséből, és a hegyes végével mellkason találta Tammy Perreault-t, aki Garden City strandján tartózkodott – írja a The Guardian.
A 63 éves Perreault körülbelül egy órával később a kórházban belehalt mellkasi sérüléseibe.
A tengerparti napernyők tüskés végük segítségével szúrhatóak le a homokba, és a nagyfelületű ernyőjük lehetővé teszi, hogy az erős szél felkaphassa őket, ha nincsenek megfelelően rögzítve – közölte az amerikai fogyasztóvédelmi bizottság.

A bizottság becslése szerint évente körülbelül 3000 ember sérül meg a napernyők miatt.
A virginiai képviselők arra kérték a fogyasztóvédelmi bizottságot, hogy vizsgálják felül a strandernyőkre vonatkozó biztonsági szabályokat, és indítsanak biztonsági kampányt.
A Journal of Safety Research című szakfolyóiratban 2021-ben megjelent tanulmány szerint a sürgősségi osztályokon kezelt, strand- és teraszernyő-sérülésekkel járó betegek többsége 40 év feletti nő volt.
