Acid attacks now so widespread in Europistan, that the public is now urged to learn how to treat victims.
Acid attacks are now so prevalent that the public needs to be trained in helping victims, the Royal College of Emergency Medicine (RCEM) has said.
The London alone, the number of attacks rocketed from 261 in 2015, to 454 last year, an increase of 73 per cent.
Doctors at the RCEM and Barts Health NHS Trust say that bystanders who come to the aid of victims should be taught to quickly remove contaminated clothing and wash off the acid with copious amounts of water, which can lessen scarring and the need for plastic surgery.
They also called for legislation to make the carrying of corrosive substances in the street illegal.
“The number of high profile “acid” attacks has been increasing in recent years, especially in London,” said Johann Grundlingh consultant emergency physician at Barts Health Trust, writing in the British Medical Journal (BMJ).
“The attacks, involving a range of corrosive substances, have brought into sharp focus the need for clinicians, law enforcement officers, and our lawmakers to find ways to deal with this latest menace on our streets.
“The assailants’ intention is not to kill, but to maim and disfigure. Corrosive substances now seem to be a replacement for carrying knives.
“Bystanders who come to the aid of the victim of an attack can have an important role in minimising further injury.”
