The Office of Disaster Preparedness and Emergency Management (ODPEM) is cautioning members of the public to guard against the effects of the Saharan dust, which tends to happen at this time of the year.
Members of the public and especially people who are already experiencing or those who are prone to respiratory illnesses, should exercise great care, by observing the following precautions:
-Stay Indoors: When the dust plume is thick, try to limit your time outdoors.
-Wear a Mask: If you must go outside, wear a dust mask, like an N95 or KN95, to protect your respiratory system.
-Use a HEPA Filter to purify the air and reduce dust levels in your home.
