Hi @jvanman, nice to meet another SA steemian. I'm in KZN, and you?
Thanks for this post, it is very important for people to know what to do. I work in a preschool, so find this very useful. A few years ago one of our little boys (2 year old) got a R2 coin stuck in his throat and I managed to dislodge it by turning him upside down and putting my fingers in his throat, pushing down his tongue. Then patting him firmly on the back.
It's quite scary! Have a great week.

Great job! Coins are super scary, not only for choking, but all the germs on them haha. I am from johannesburg (well actually, born in pretoria, lived in Tzaneen, Nelspruit, Kempton Park, Springs (like a black hole in my past haha), East London, Australia for 2 years mission, Krugersdorp, Port Elizabeth, back to Kdorp, and Randburg.
My black hole was Vereeniging, where I grew up. My husband was in Krugersdorp for years and we lived in Joburg for 12 years before coming down to KZN. I have very good friends in Pomona (outskirts of Kempton). We should have a steemit conference one day .. I've met quite a few SA people here.
