Assistant Professor Dr. Cheyenne Falat, MD, recently provided winter safety advice to three local Baltimore media outlets.
On the live radio station WBAL-AM, Dr. Falat warned listeners of the “bookend seasons,” just before the coolest months of the year. Because temperatures may be warmer during the day, many individuals may not recognize the dangers of chilly nighttime temperatures.
In CBS | Baltimore, Dr. Falat emphasized similar messaging, encouraging viewers to also check on their elderly neighbors.
And in WMAR ABC Baltimore, Dr. Falat noted the acute impacts of cold weather to at-risk population groups, including those without reliable housing—especially in urban areas like downtown Baltimore.
