Information reaching us from EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) is that the current change in weather / atmosphere across the country is not harmattan, but rather an extreme form of air pollution with dire consequences on human health  

This can be hazardous and lead to :

1. Reduced Lung function

2. Respiratory infection

3. Inflammation

4. Oxidative Stress (low level of antioxidants which even creates an imbalance in your body)

Consequently, everyone is being advised to please :

- Mask-up (wear nose mask)

- Stay hydrated (Drink more water)

- Cover food and water very well to prevent dust from settling on them.

- Wash fruits very well before eating

- Stay indoors as much as possible    

This condition may prevail for a considerable period of time.

Let’s take note, adhere strictly, keep our family and friends informed.
