Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. When relative humidity increases, the body's capacity to evaporate heat decreases, leading to a heightened sense of warmth. The body is at risk of dehydration and related complications when it fails to shed excessive heat.
