PM2.5 particulate matter refers to particles smaller than 2.5 micrometers, smaller than the diameter of a human hair, up to 25 times smaller. An increase in PM2.5 fine dust levels has adverse effects on the health of infants, both in the short and long term.
Children are a vulnerable group that requires special attention due to their small size and developing lungs. Normally, children have a higher breathing rate than adults, meaning they inhale more polluted air.
Today, Rajavej Kids Club shares methods to protect your little ones from the risk of PM2.5 dust.
Stay tuned for valuable tips!
- Avoid outdoor activities.
- Wear a PM2.5 protective mask every time you leave the house.
- Drink 8-10 glasses of clean water per day.
- Seal doors and windows tightly; use fans to promote air circulation.
- Install HEPA filter air purifiers to reduce PM2.5 dust levels. Rajavej Hospital in Chiang Mai cares about patients’ and their families’ health and has installed air purifiers in patient rooms.
- Monitor PM2.5 levels through the Air4Thai application.
- Seek medical attention immediately if any abnormal symptoms arise.
