Helsinki FD has 700 employees - they do fire and ambulance service for the city
Boston Mass has 700,000 also - but iirc - FD has 1400 employees and EMS has 300
So Boston spends approx 250% more for fire and ems than Helsinki does
Interesting
(Helsinki also has 15 volunteer fire brigades that back up the 9 paid stations)

Nashville bomb caused major 911 problems
At the height of the outage, 46 counties in Tennessee had disruptions
in 911 call center services, state officials said. As of Tuesday, four
counties (Bledsoe, Cannon, Lincoln and Perry), home to about 70,000
people, were still without call center services and were using
alternate numbers to route emergency calls.
The outages also affected the Tennessee hotline for reporting child
abuse, adult protective services and driver's license services, among
other agencies and programs. Severe disruptions were also reported in
Kentucky and Alabama.

maybe they have some very tight neighborhoods where they need to send
in the motorcycles first to see whats going on - or maybe they use the
motorcycles just for earthquakes - or maybe just as first responders
to get thru heavy traffic
I suspect if this was an industrial part of the city they would have
some foam/chemical pumpers also
this is the paid FD - I think they have 18 battalions in the city -
kinda like Los Angeles (which also has a population of 4 million iirc)
the volunteers are separate from the paid guys - they have their own

Yokohama is a city with 4 million residents - the city is divided up
into 18 wards - I think that each ward has its own volunteer fire
brigade to support the paid firefighters
this page has multi photos of the Aoba Ward volunteers - they have
small pumpers and chain saws etc
The Aoba Ward Volunteers have 25 stations and 25 tiny pumpers - they
have 451 volunteers - the tiny pumpers have 1 portable pump each it
seems
typically the volunteers do receive pay for training and response to
calls - afaik - they are considered to be part time municipal
employees - same as the USA it seems - but I think they might only
respond to earthquakes and typhoons in the big cities

Spain - FD merges into State FD
https://www.comunidad.madrid/noticias/2020/10/06/reforzamos-extincion-incendios-integracion-parque-bomberos-leganes
interesting article
besides the merger - they have designed 8 additional fire stations so they can reach 90% of the population in under 10 minutes
seems that Legane FD with 72 firefighters merged into the Madrid State FD
they seem to have very meager fire departments outside of Madrid proper
Navalcanero has a population of 28,0 yet apparently has no fire station - and they are 9 miles from the closest station - over 35 mph roads (maybe)

looking at trumpfs twitter feed
I just went thru trumpfs twitter feed back thru Dec 8
there were approx 235 tweets & retweets - 90% were about the election
- 1 or 2 were about covid
on Dec 19 there were 2 tweets on the cyber attack - trumpf said that
maybe China attacked out voting machines
(actually - there were maybe a dozen tweets about the new vaccine - so
that was covid related - absolutely no mention of 3,000 people dying
per day - absolutely no mention of 7 dead in Taiwan - absolutely no
mention of 25 dead in New Zealand)

Re: Ireland cardiac arrest annual report

I suspect they might use repeaters (MO3) in the trouble shooting
trucks to link portable radios back to the TRS - maybe not - in any
case, it would not be very difficult to do - would just cost more

just thought this up
just thought this up - new nationwide public safety radio scheme
1. every dispatch center has a drone they can launch to an emergency
scene and provide simplex comms back to the dispatch center - each
drone has the capability to operate simplex on 3or 4 of 30 onscene
simplex channels
2. every public safety radio has 30 onscene (nationwide) simplex channels
3. for any incident - the dispatcher will announce when the comms
drone is onscene and which channels are being monitored
for examples - units working at the brush fire on Lopsided Mtn, the
comms drone is now onscene, dispatch is monitoring on scene channels
5, 6, and 7 - all units presently onscene can switch to Channel 5 at
this time at your leisure
all of the onscene radios could have a built in 2ndary receiver on
'OnScene Ch 1' - or be scanning 'OnScene Ch 1' - and 'On Scene Ch 1'
would only be used by the IC (or the dispatch center) to broadcast
life or death messages
the only place this would not work would be in deep basements and caves

Beijing - oldest fire station ?
http://english.beijing.gov.cn/beijinginfo/culture/202005/t20200515_1898145.html
note the red doors and the yellow markings on the street - maybe a fire station
I might be way off the mark - but considering the following paragraph
- this might be the oldest fire station in Beijing. Maybe from AD
1267.
============================
Wudaoying was settled in Chongjiaofang and was formerly known as Wude
Weiying. It was there since Zhu Di, Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty,
built the capital in ancient Beijing. It is said to be the barracks
station of the Ming Dynasty defending the city. It was renamed
"Wudaoying" in the Qing Dynasty, and then was renamed "Wudaoying
Hutong" in 1965 when the official rectification was implemented.

Original title: The first small fire station in Daxing was unveiled
On November 4, the launching ceremony of the 30th "119 Publicity
Month" and the unveiling ceremony of the small fire station in Daxing
District of Beijing were held at the Sports Center of Daxing District.
The first small fire station in Daxing District-Gaomidian small fire
station was inaugurated and the keys to the fire engine were handed
over. The small fire station was officially put into use on November
4.
It is reported that the small fire station is an effective fire
fighting force between the fire rescue station and the community mini
fire station. Compared with the fire rescue station, it is more
grounded and has a faster response. Compared with the miniature fire
station, it has more professional fire fighting capabilities in terms
of personnel, equipment and equipment, filling the gap between the
fire rescue station and the miniature fire station. Currently,
Gaomidian small fire station has 2 professional fire trucks, 1 station
master, 1 assistant station master, 15 full-time firefighters, and the
personnel are divided into 3 combat teams. Gaomidian's small fire
station will improve the level of emergency response and rapid
response to fires in Gaomidian streets, as well as the ability to
prevent and reduce disasters and rescue.
In 2020, "119 Fire Fighting Publicity Month" will be themed with
"Focus on Fire Fighting, Life First". Daxing District will carry out a
series of fire safety publicity activities. In addition to the
launching ceremony of the main venue on November 15, all functional
departments and various Streets, towns, and management committees will
also carry out various forms and rich content of fire protection
publicity activities. (Zhang Yu)

How to dial 119 to call the police effectively? Home address must be memorized
Date: 2019-07-29 11:10 Source: Beijing Municipal Public Security
Bureau Office News Center
If you find that electrical appliances are overheating when you are at
home, or you find that a certain household appliance has smoked, don't
panic first and dial 119. After the call is made, you must first tell
the detailed residential address in your home, and then tell the
police officer where the fire occurred in the electrical appliance or
the fire location. Tell the truth about the cause of the fire.

Dec 13 2020 - near Imperial Palace - did a rough sampling of approx 12
fire stations - they are 1/2 air mile to 1.5 air miles apart - average
is 3.5 bays roughly - seems to be similar to Europe and maybe Los
Angeles - not like east coast USA which has many more single company
stations with 1 or 2 bays - just 1 of these dozen Beijing stations is
2 bays - none are 1 bay

Japan has reached herd immunity
the reason their death rate is so low is that they dont shout in each
others faces & they have good ventilation - therefore they dont blast
each other with millions of virions - just a 100 virions for an
initial innoculum - mentioned at 15:00 on the video
there are 2 types of antibodies - IgM and IgG - IgM appear first and
last for 1 month approx - then the IgG antibodies start to be produced
(1 month maybe after initial exposure)

they followed a paid pumper to the scene - and then took the back road

anyone have info on their dispatch system? exactly who ordered the 2nd

probably some FD on Long Island about to purchase a $2M aerial ladder

Fire station study for Linyi City in China
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/322998903_Study_on_Urban_Fire_Station_Planning_based_on_Fire_Risk_Assessment_and_GIS_Technology
approx 10 page report
internet shows that the population of the Lanshan District (central
city) of Linyi City in Shandang Province is 1.1 million
the study (from 2017) recommended adding 4 fire stations to the
existing 6 fire stations
Considering that all of their main streets are probably very wide and
straight and level - then maybe 10 stations is all that they need -
off course they probably have 5 units in each station - so it is
equivalent to 50 USA fire stations
the study was very simple - high risk areas must be reached in 2
minutes - all areas must be reached in 5 minutes - road speeds vary
from 30 to 60 (km/hr) - which is below the design speeds / speed
limits

lockdowns alter this map

Re: Beijing got new 4 bay station

(party finger probably means 'notice from party' - seems all of the
fire stations have big signs with propaganda - maybe there are small
signs with station name or ID)
