You can follow the steps below to stay safe during an earthquake

1. Apply the “Drop, Cover, and Hold On” technique: When the earthquake starts, immediately crouch down where you are, cover your head with your hands to protect your head and neck, and take shelter next to a table, under a table or a wall. If such protection is not possible, put your head between your arms and squat on the ground to protect your head. Do not try to stand during an earthquake.

2. If you are outdoors: If you are outdoors, move to an open area and stay away from buildings, poles, trees and other structures and objects. If you cannot go to an open area, put your arm over your head to protect your head and observe.

3. Also, stay away from walls, glass, and objects that may fall. Avoid using moving elevators.

4. After the earthquake stops: If there is a fire, immediately take action to evacuate in a fire-safe manner. Also check for other hazards, such as gas leaks. Take steps to notify emergency crews or authorities of the emergency.

By following these steps, you can stay safe during an earthquake. It is also important to take into account the instructions and recommendations of the authorities during and after the earthquake.
