It’s already hard to breathe since the beginning of the new year. PM2.5 is so thick that it looks like fog.
Since the beginning of the new year, PM2.5 dust in many provinces has covered the sky so thickly that it looks like fog! The dust levels are at a dangerous level, which has a significant impact on health.
At the beginning of the first month of the year, Thai people are unable to breathe deeply because Thailand is facing a problem of “PM2.5” dust that has continuously increased, which has a significant impact on health.
Why does winter come with dust almost every year?
Now Thailand still has cold weather due to the wind blowing through Thailand now from the high pressure area. When cold air covers the ground, it will be denser than warm air, causing the warm air that moves to the cold air to be pressed closer to the ground, preventing various pollutants from floating high. Therefore, in winter there is “PM2.5” and bad weather.
The dangers of PM2.5
Many people already know that PM2.5 is very dangerous to health. But yologreennews will take everyone to learn about the dangers of PM2.5 and how it affects the body.
- Dangers to the respiratory tract and lungs: Many people already know that PM2.5 has a direct effect on the respiratory system and lungs because it is small and can easily and quickly enter the respiratory tract, causing those who already have respiratory diseases to have their symptoms worsened.
- Heart hazard: When we inhale fine dust particles, it causes deposits in the blood vessels, which can cause heart attacks or strokes. In addition, inhaling large amounts of dust particles also affects heart muscle cells.
- Brain Danger: If dust particles enter the bloodstream and accumulate in large amounts, it results in high blood pressure, blood viscosity, and an increased risk of blood clots in the brain, including hardening of the arteries in the brain, causing the blood vessels in the brain to narrow or rupture, which is a cause of paralysis and death.
The dust situation in Thailand is currently very worrying. Before leaving the house, you should wear a mask every time for health safety. In addition to being safe from dust, it can also protect against dangers from germs.
