Answer

What kind of heat measures would help vulnerable people in Mallorca?

Useful measures would include a clear heat warning system, mobile drinking and cooling points, and longer opening hours for shelters during extreme temperatures.

For the most vulnerable, free transport to air-conditioned spaces could make a real difference.
