=======================  First Aid Measures  =======================

First Aid:INHALATION:REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. RESUSCITATE IF NOT BREATHING.
    GET MEDICAL ATTENTION. EYES:IMMEDIATELY FLUSH WITH PLENTY OF WATER
    FOR 15 MINUTES HOLDING EYELIDS OPEN. GET IMMEDIATE MEDICAL
    ATTENTION. S KIN:REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING. WASH WITH SOAP AND
