Thirteen people in Texas and one person in Louisiana died due to the extreme temperatures that went up due to the heat wave in the USA. Eleven of the deaths were reported in Webb County, Texas, and those who died were between the ages of 60 and 80 and had different health problems. The other two people were a 31-year-old man and his 14-year-old son, who were hiking in Big Bend National Park.
American scientists and medical experts warned that deaths from extreme heat will increase each summer unless necessary precautions are taken against climate change.
