Just In : Environmental protection Agency issues strong health warnings to Nigerians amidst current weather change
Information reaching us from EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) is that the current change in weather / atmosphere across the country is not harmattan, but rather an extreme form of air pollution with dire consequences on human health
This can be hazardous and lead to :
- Reduced Lung function
- Respiratory infection
- Inflammation
- Oxidative Stress (low level of antioxidants which even creates an imbalance in your body)
Consequently, everyone is being advised to please :
- Mask-up (wear nose mask)
- Stay hydrated (Drink more water)
- Cover food and water very well to prevent dust from settling on them.
- Wash fruits very well before eating
- Stay indoors as much as possible
This condition may prevail for a considerable period of time.
Let’s take note, adhere strictly, keep our family and friends informed.
