I personally know someone whose skull ..

...was cracked while clearing branches post-storm.

Do not perform activities you are not trained for.
Wear sturdy boots to prevent punctures.
Get a tetanus shot.
REST. Keep focused and sharp when working in dangerous environments.
Hydrate...

A major cause of death is carbon monoxide poisoning from running generators indoors or unventilated environments.
ALWAYS run generators well away/outside from the home. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="⚠️" title="Warnsignal" aria-label="Emoji: Warnsignal">

And there is still COVID-19 to deal with. Keep physically distancing and take other precautions.
