San Juan, 23 mar (Prensa Latina) .- Gran preocupaci\u00f3n ha generado hoy las muertes de nueve turistas en incidentes ocurridos en playas de Puerto Rico, en apenas dos meses y medio de este a\u00f1o.<\/p>\n
La mayor\u00eda los sucesos de producen por desconocimiento de los peligros existentes en determinadas playas de la costa norte, espec\u00edficamente en el sector capitalino del Condado, seg\u00fan Juan Cana, presidente de la Asociaci\u00f3n de Salvavidas.<\/p>\n
Cana apunt\u00f3 que los incidentes tr\u00e1gicos en dos meses y medio de 2026, incluyen cuatro ahogamientos en un d\u00eda, por lo que la posibilidad es que se acerque al promedio de 30 personas que mueren ahogadas anualmente en las playas de esta naci\u00f3n del Caribe, seg\u00fan un estudio de la Universidad de Puerto Rico (UPR).<\/p>\n
En el 2024, el Instituto de Ciencias Forenses report\u00f3 que, entre el 1 de enero y el 10 de marzo, se reportaron 46 casos de asfixia por inmersi\u00f3n en Puerto Rico.
Hasta septiembre del 2024, se registraron 28 muertes por ahogamiento en cuerpos de agua, incluyendo r\u00edos y lagos.<\/p>\n
\u00abPerd\u00ed la cuenta de cu\u00e1ntos han fallecido este a\u00f1o porque me afecta. Me dedico a que no pase, pero van como 10 en los primeros meses y podr\u00eda superar el 2025 por mucho, pues todav\u00eda falta el verano y los meses de corrientes\u00bb, advirti\u00f3.<\/p>\n
El Programa Sea Grant de la UPR detall\u00f3 que desde 2020 hasta marzo de 2023, se reportaron 112 muertes por ahogamiento en playas de Puerto Rico.<\/p>\n
De esa cifra, el 45 por ciento corresponde a turistas, un aumento significativo en comparaci\u00f3n con el 2,0 por ciento registrado en d\u00e9cadas anteriores, ya que los mensajes de orientaci\u00f3n no son suficientemente efectivos para disuadir a ba\u00f1istas extranjeros a aventurarse en aguas que representan riesgos, seg\u00fan el presidente de los salvavidas asociados.<\/p>\n
\u00abLos hoteles hacen advertencias, pero estoy seguro que los alquileres a corto plazo, no\u00bb, afirm\u00f3 Cana al sugerir que se requiere un plan de prevenci\u00f3n con guardavidas patrullando las playas, orientando.
Remat\u00f3 que \u00abesto se resuelve con prevenci\u00f3n y educaci\u00f3n desde los aeropuertos\u00bb.
