This morning @LADeptHealth reported two additional deaths from carbon monoxide poisoning due to a generator inside the home. Generators must only be used outdoors and away from windows, doors and other openings. Not even under carports or garages. #lagov #Laura #HurricaneLaura https://twitter.com/LouisianaGov/status/1299731097652285440/photo/1

If you start to feel sick, dizzy or weak while using a generator, get to fresh air IMMEDIATELY. Be sure to place it away from doors, windows and vents that could allow CO to come inside. Keep the generator dry and don't use it in wet conditions. #lagov #Laura #HurricaneLaura

Gas-powered generators produce an exhaust of carbon monoxide, which is odorless and colorless. Inhaling it can rapidly lead to full incapacitation or death. Opening windows or doors or using fans will not prevent the build-up of carbon monoxide. #lagov #Laura #HurricaneLaura
