On Saturday, February 18th at approximately 1:30 PM (13:30), during Saturday's keynote talk at Disobey 2023, two pressurised drink containers exploded on the second floor balcony at Nixu's sponsor area. The explosion was powerful enough to break several inner, but not outer, window panes in the area.
Immediately afterwards, the organizers and visitors nearest to the explosion were sent for a medical checkup in case of pressure-related injuries. Later on, we have become aware of one person with a perforated ear drum caused by the accident. Also, one person has exhibited significant nose bleed.
IF YOU HAVE MEDICAL SYMPTOMS, SEEK MEDICAL ASSISTANCE. While we strongly believe that there is no immediate cause of concern, a perforated ear drum may affect your balance. For further information about related symptoms, see https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/perforated-eardrum/

What we know so far:
Lauantaina 18. helmikuuta noin kello 13.30, saman päivän keynote-puheen aikana, Disobey 2023 -tapahtumassa räjähti kaksi paineistettua juoma-astiaa toisen kerroksen parvekkeella Nixun sponsorialueella. Räjähdys oli tarpeeksi voimakas rikkoakseen useita sisä-, muttei ulkoikkunoita sponsorialueella.
Välittömästi räjähdyksen jälkeen lähetimme lähimpänä onnettumuutta olleet järjestäjät sekä kävijät terveyskeskukseen siltä varalta, että heillä olisi ollut paineen aiheuttamia vammoja. Myöhemmin yhdellä henkilöllä on todettu puhjennut tärykalvo, joka on aiheutunut onnettomuudesta. Lisäksi olemme kuulleet toisella henkilöllä tapahtuneesta merkittävästä nenäverenvuodosta.
JOS SINULLA ON OIREITA, HAKEUDU HOITOON. Vaikka tällä hetkellä meillä ei ole syytä epäillä välitöntä vaaraa, tärykalvon vammat voivat vaikuttaa tasapainoaistiin. Oireiden yleiskuvaukset löytyvät mm. osoitteesta https://www.terveyskirjasto.fi/dlk00279
Jos haluat lisätietoja liittyen tapahtumaan tai vakuutukseen, ota meihin yhteys osoitteessa contact@disobey.fi. Ota myös yhteyttä, jos haluat jutella trauman aiheuttamista tunteista onnettomuuteen liittyen.
