The Check Dust (เช็คฝุ่น) application has reported elevated PM2,5 dust levels in Thailand. On Monday morning (11 November), Samut Sakhon province recorded the highest value with 65,4 micrograms per cubic metre (μg/m³). High concentrations were also recorded in Nonthaburi, Ubon Ratchathani, Nakhon Pathom and Amnat Charoen provinces, ranging from 57,6 to 60,5 μg/m³.
A total of 39 provinces are experiencing air quality levels in the orange zone, indicating pollution levels that could pose a risk to health. Authorities are advising the public to take precautions, such as wearing masks outdoors, limiting intensive outdoor activities and monitoring for symptoms such as coughing and difficulty breathing.
Vulnerable groups, including young children, the elderly and people with respiratory conditions, are specifically advised to wear protective masks when going outdoors. It is important for them to avoid strenuous outdoor activities and to seek immediate medical advice if they experience any symptoms. Immediate medical attention is recommended in the event of unusual symptoms, as these groups are particularly susceptible to the effects of PM2,5 exposure.
Given the continued worrying levels of pollution, the public is urged to monitor air quality reports daily and adjust their activities accordingly to protect health.
Authorities are advising the public to start wearing masks.
The authorities should take measures themselves instead of leaving it to the people.
