There were 15000 heat related deaths in France in the 2003 heatwave.
Government promised to sort it out.
All talk. Care homes, hospitals and schools still without A/C.
No doubt 'politics' got involved in this non-action.
This heatwave (this week has been very difficult to deal with) has been even more extreme than 2003.
I dont think we will ever get to see the numbers. Very grim.
