Abstract
Durante el periodo 1998-2005, la unidad de Materiales Peligrosos del Instituto Nacional de Seguros (MATPEL) atendió 329 emergencias químico-tecnológicas en Costa Rica, de las cuales 255 ocurrieron en la Gran Área Metropolitana (GAM). En los años 2002 y 2003 se observaron los mayores porcentajes de siniestros en la GAM, 82% y 92%, respectivamente. El 2004 presentó la menor cantidad de incidentes con 25, de los cuales 20 (80%) ocurrieron en el área metropolitana. En promedio en la GAM se atienden 32 accidentes por año, lo que equivale a 2,7 eventos por mes.Downloads
