A cautious note for those who sleep in the air-conditioned room

A friend of mine has passed away recently while sleeping in an air-con room.

Please read the mail below and be careful.

Heard of a bad news regarding a female tertiary student. She passed away last weekend due to carbon monoxide poisoning.

It happened when she lighted an aromatherapeutic candle for the night in a room with air conditioning on and all windows closed.

Due to lack of oxygen in the room, the burning of the candle cannot fully oxidized & thus forming dangerous carbon monoxide.

Carbon monoxide will prevent oxygen exchange in the lungs, resulting the person dozing off to state of unconsciousness & eventually death in less than 1 hour, depending on the room size. I am sending this e-mail out to all of you so that you will be aware of such danger when lighting aromatherapeutic candles in any unventilated rooms.

Please forward this email to all your love ones.
