NEA advice for healthy adult: avoid prolonged or strenuous outdoor physical exertion.

What to do

  • Keep windows and doors closed. An air purifier with a HEPA filter cleans indoor air.
  • Outdoors for hours? A well-fitted N95 mask filters fine smoke. Surgical masks do not. Short trips do not need one.
  • Check on elderly relatives and neighbours.
  • Breathless, chest pain or dizzy? Seek medical attention.
