Quiz: How Many Days Could You Survive a Crisis With What You Have at Home?
Latvijas Avīze has published an interactive quiz that helps people gauge how many days they could cope in a crisis. It is built around a scenario in which a city loses electricity, water, mobile internet and heating all at once.
The Latvian newspaper Latvijas Avīze has released a quiz on its website designed to help readers judge whether their households are ready for a crisis.
The scenario
The introduction asks readers to imagine that a city loses its electricity, water supply, mobile internet and heating. In such a situation, shops and ATMs do not work either. The publication notes that a recent storm caught roughly every third person unprepared, and asks whether people have learned from it.
How the quiz works
Participants are asked to answer honestly about what they have at home right now. Once the answers are given, the quiz shows how many days they could calmly get by in crisis conditions.
The quiz has 11 questions, each answered with a simple yes or no. The first question asks whether the household has at least a reserve of drinking water.
The quiz is presented as an easy way for anyone to test their own readiness and think about which supplies might be missing. The source text gives no further detail on how results are interpreted or what recommendations follow, so the final assessment depends on the answers each participant provides.
