Anyone with chronic conditions such as asthma, COPD, heart disease, or respiratory illnesses should stay inside and reduce their physical activity.
If symptoms such as eye and throat irritation, chest discomfort, shortness of breath, or coughing and wheezing should contact their healthcare provider.
