if the show was held on Sunday night. Temperatures at the jamboree site have hovered above 33 Celsius.

only 38 degrees here. Man up. Sorry scout up, sorry use the stupid battery powered personal fans, or better wear Speedo or bikini. Not black color. The world has changed so just adapt. 3 liters of water for instance.

Also inadequate sanitation/toilet facilities

"increased improvement" in site conditions after additional resources were made available

Too bad the improvements didn't come until after hundreds of people had fallen ill.
