  • Research indicates wildfire smoke is more toxic than regular air pollution, capable of lingering in the air for weeks.
  • Exposure has been linked to increased risks of heart attacks, strokes, respiratory illnesses, and even cognitive changes.
  • Potential long-term effects include a higher risk of lung cancer and other serious health conditions, aggravated by repeated exposure.
  • Experts recommend limiting outdoor activities during smoke events and using N95 masks for better protection.
