Americans are dying from extreme heat. Autopsy reports don’t show the full truth

As extreme heat continues to rise in the U.S., the tragic story of Hannah Rose Moody highlights a concerning trend: autopsy reports often fail to accurately reflect the impact of heat on deaths. Moody, a 31-year-old from Scottsdale, Arizona, died during a hike in temperatures exceeding 90°F. Experts argue that the true toll of heat-related fatalities is underreported, emphasizing the need for better tracking and awareness of how climate change is affecting public health. This issue is crucial as it sheds light on the hidden dangers of rising temperatures and the importance of addressing climate-related health risks.
