For those trapped in rubble after an earthquake, survival depends on many factors, including weather and access to water and air. Experts say victims can survive for a week or more if their injuries aren’t too severe and the weather isn’t too hot or cold. Rescue teams in Myanmar and Thailand are searching for survivors after Friday’s 7.7 magnitude quake that toppled buildings and damaged roads. Most rescues happen in the 24 hours after a disaster. The chances of survival drop with each day after that. Trapped victims are more likely to survive if they are in a debris-free pocket that prevents major injury.
