Grab an emergency kit and get under a sturdy structure.
Get under something like a table and grab onto a part of it, like the legs of a table. Then crouch down so your knees are on the floor and your head on your knees.
The safest place indoors is under a doorway. Even if the roof collapses, the doorway will typically remain intact. In cities prone to earthquakes, many buildings have emergency earthquake shelters, as well.
Make an emergency kit, and get under a table or doorframe.
- Take cover under a table, desk, etc.
- Crouch into a ball protecting your head and neck.
- If the earthquake is strong, then you should try to IF POSSIBLE move outside into an area of no buildings or other possible dangers.
- After the earthquake be aware of after shocks.
- try to seek help if needed.
