You guys really need help

This air quality alert is bringing out the Covid crazies. They are thrilled to have something to freak out and scold everyone about again.

Cavalier statements like this aren’t going to age well. In the western states, where fires are more common, schools and sports organizations have policies about rescheduling recess, games, and practices at certain AQI thresholds. I used to live in Hong Kong 20 years ago, same story.

If/when fires start to affect the east coast more, expect your k-12 schools, youth sports organizations, and universities to follow suit.

Policies are reasonable. Hysteria is not.

Says someone who ignores science.
Look, science doesn’t care about your opinion. That’s the beauty of it. It’s FACTual. And you are wrong. Do not give advice to others please.

Science doesn't care about your anxiety. We can follow science to make evidence-based decisions and adjustments to our activities based on our personal health status and risk level. Just like we could/can for COVID!

The air quality today obviously warrants making some adjustments. Not the best day for an outdoor run or an hours-long outdoor party. But locking yourself and your children indoors for days if you don't have documented risk factors is an overreaction not based in science.

I guess you don't have the money and freedom those of us who can stay home do. Go rockstar over to my lawn and mow it.

This is the wussification of America. Everyone is always looking for a reason for things to be difficult.

LOL "Be tough! Damage your lungs for no good reason!"

You guys are nuts. Nobody is getting damaged lungs from outdoor recess this week.

You all need to get treatment for your anxiety and hypochondria.

Science is real, you MAGA dumb dumb!

I have no reason to believe that this poster is a Trump supporter. Seriously people, only DC can turn this into a political issue. You're ridiculous.

Personally, I would not have my kids do outdoor activities on a red air quality day.

Its purple now in our zip.

+1

I was planning on a run today, but the combo of the sky looking so crazy and the very real eye irritation when I was outside briefly, made me reconsider. I’m not a “covid crazy” - it’s just a very noticeable problem with the air today.

You think a 20 minute walk makes you a rockstar????

And my lungs haven't been damaged by anything else other than allergies and borderline asthma. I have never even smoked. Some people are more sensitive than others.

Yes, the smoke has been affecting me just going outside before now, don't even plan to leave the house today if I can.

My doctor who has documented my lung damage would disagree with you. To answer the OP, yes, I'm limiting activity because I have lung damage. As to what others are deciding to do - they know their bodies best.

You're lungs were damaged from wildfire smoke you sustained while outdoors walking your dog?!?!

Or your lung were previously damaged from something else and fall into that 'vulnerable population' category?

Two widely different thing. I'm willing to bet that 99% of the kids staying home today, or being pulled from baseball practice, have perfectly healthy lungs that would not sustain any damage from attending school

My lungs were damaged from failed surgery. I think you are really going over the top on your posts (and realize, there are multiple people who are posting). The OP asked "Are you limiting your activity" not why, not "are you crazy for walking your dog"

I walked my dog and had to use my inhaler twice. My kid is at school, I don't know the status of her free time, but yesterday they were kept in doors.

I'm not sure why you are yelling at people who make a different choice than you.
