On average (平均), firefighters get a fire call every 24 seconds in the US. Every 87 seconds, a home fire happens. Just between January 1st, 2019 and January 1st, 2024, there were 11,180 home fire deaths in the country. So everyone should pay attention to fire safety at home.
Among the common causes, cooking tools are the number-one cause of home fires. Be especially careful when using them. Never leave the kitchen while cooking.
