Paramedics said A
2-year-old-girl is suffering second degree burns to her body after a pot
of boiling water spilled onto her at her home in Cul-linan, near Pretoria, today.
Paramedics were called to a local
clinic in the area, where the child had been taken.
The child was in a serious condition,
Netcare 911 spokesperson Athlenda Mathe said.
An Emergency Care Practitioner managed
to stabilise the child before she was transported to a hospital in Pretoria.
Netcare
911 advised all parents and child minders to keep a close watch on children
when they are around water - whether the water was in a bathtub, a wading
pool, a fish pond, a swimming pool, or in a pot on a stove.
