Answer

What health risks can arise in vacant buildings in Palma?

Vacant buildings in Palma can become health hazards when rubbish, pests and poor sanitation build up over time. That can increase the risk of infections linked to rodents and contaminated waste, especially if people are living there without proper sewage or waste disposal. In practice, the danger is not just the building itself but the lack of control and follow-up.
