| Above 100? I know it’s going to get worse today, and I’m debating whether to send my kid to camp outdoors. |

We don’t.
We’re going to be outside all day today. |

| We keep our toddler in once it hits code red and limit it to a 30 minute walk in the stroller when it’s orange. |

| Around 100. We don't believe in "more exposure to bad stuff will make your kid stronger" idea. Bunch of idiots. |

| Red zone or 150. If it's right at 150, short time outside maybe. |

| Delhi has days in the winter that are around 500-600. That's like two packs of smokes. A couple days a year at 100? Meh, I won't significantly change our plans. |

| Anything orange or above. Not worth the risk. |

| Normal activity today, though we run filters in the house. I limit activities on red days but have sent to camp in the past if camp has a plan for adapting. |

Between 150 and 200, I start thinking twice about it.
We lived in an air polluted country for a number of years and that was our standard then, as well. |

"People with heart or lung disease, older adults, children and teens: Reduce your exposure by choosing less strenuous activities or shortening the amount of time you are active outdoors." I see no need to prove how tough I am by breathing poison. |

The risk of permanent lung damage. |

This is approximately what we do with our preschoolers as well. And more or less how their summer camp has been operating this summer. Indoor play only on Code Red days. Limited outdoor play in the mornings on Code Orange days. |
