Take Note:
* The rule of 3s: we can live three minutes without air, three days without water, and three weeks without food.
* Being able to access healthcare resources may not be an option, so having a basic first aid kit and some other vital supplies is critical to surviving for 72 hours. It is estimated that it will take at least three days for emergency services to be up and running during some disaster scenarios.
