With the summer approaching, everyone is talking about protecting themselves from the sun. I heard that heat stroke can be very severe. Is heat stroke fatal if not treated quickly?

I was actually researching this online and yes, medical sources say it has a high mortality rate if emergency cooling is delayed. It is not just normal dehydration, the organs can actually fail. Definitely a major emergency.

Haan beta, this 'loo' can take a person's life if we are careless. Never let anyone sit in the direct hot sun for long, and if someone faints, take them to the government hospital doctor immediately.

Yes, from what I understand, it can indeed be fatal because the body loses its ability to control its temperature. I try to be very careful in the sun as my body reacts poorly to heat. Please consult a doctor immediately if you suspect someone has it.
