Health Advisory from NEA

During the haze season, the one-hour PM2.5 concentration indicates the current air quality. Use this to decide on immediate activities such as going for a jog. When planning activities within the same day, members of the public are advised to closely monitor the one-hour PM2.5 readings and check the latest readings before proceeding.

This guide is not intended to be prescriptive. For the general population, symptoms that may arise from short-term exposure such as throat or eye irritations are expected to resolve after withdrawing from the exposure.

NOTE: *Vulnerable people include the elderly, pregnant women, children and people with chronic lung disease or heart disease.
