Ozone pollution can trigger asthma attacks, aggravate bronchitis and other lung diseases, and weaken the body’s ability to fight infection. If you have asthma, COPD or any respiratory condition, stay inside during the afternoon when pollution peaks.
Kids, older adults and anyone exercising outside may feel the effects, too. Watch for itchy eyes, nose and throat, along with wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath and chest pain.
We can all keep the problem from getting worse. Carpool, take public transportation or work from home if you can. Refuel your gas-powered vehicles after dark and avoid idling in long drive-thru lines.
