HANGZHOU: Malaysia contingent have hit the 27-medal target with four days of competition remaining at the Hanzhou Asian Games, thanks to kata exponent Lovely Anne Robberth.
PETALING JAYA: Malaysians are urged to take safety measures following the resurgence of haze pollution as overexposure to poor air quality can lead to numerous health problems.
People are also advised to consume at least eight glasses of water per day to maintain the body’s hydration level while beverages that promote fluid loss such as alcohol and coffee should be avoided. “Among the effects due to continuous exposure to haze include itching in the throat, coughing, shortness of breath, difficulty breathing as well as watery or sore eyes.“Get treatment and advice from a doctor at a nearby clinic if you have these signs and symptoms.”
“Vulnerable groups such as children, the elderly and those with pre-existing conditions like asthma and cardiovascular diseases face higher risks where repeated exposure to haze over several years can worsen pre-existing chronic lung conditions, increase the risk of lung cancer and lead to frequent bronchitis episodes.
Dr Kow also recommended using N95 masks for prolonged outdoor exposure, which may help filter out fine particulate matter that may be harmful.
