Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
Evaporating sweat, an outcome of perspiration, is key in assisting the human body to moderate its temperature. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.
