A two-year-old girl was saved after choking on a grape late Thursday evening at a banquet hall in Isfiya, a town in northern Israel. A Magen David Adom (MDA) emergency medical team responded to the scene, where they found a large crowd of distressed individuals. The child was unconscious and not breathing, with a very weak pulse, according to witnesses who stated she had choked on a grape. MDA paramedics immediately began resuscitation efforts, and the girl soon began to respond. She was transported to Rambam Hospital in Haifa in serious but stable condition. MDA is reminding parents and caregivers to supervise young children closely during meals, recommending that grapes be cut into quarters lengthwise for young children and never given whole. They also stressed the importance of ensuring children sit while eating and are constantly supervised. In case of choking, MDA advises calling 101 immediately and following the dispatcher's instructions.
