In conditions of war, shelling of civilians, it is very important to collect a first aid kit for small and adult family members.
What to put in a first aid kit if you have a long road ahead?
Children’s doctor Lidia Babich provides a list of drugs for adults and children who had to leave their parents’ home.
There is nothing superfluous in the list: everything you need, for all occasions.
