The Chiang Mai Provincial Public Health Office has instructed hospitals to prepare medical supplies for more patients suffering from smog-triggered illnesses, as the air pollution in the North remains severe.
Office executive Dr Surasing Wisaruthrat yesterday said that 70,000 to 80,000 facemasks would also be distributed among at-risk persons, especially those living in outer districts where field burning and wildfire usually occurred.
Tiny particles at downtown Chiang Mai were reported at 134 micrograms per cubic metre at Tambon Chang Pheuk and at 155 mg per cu/m at Tambon Sri Phum, which were beyond the safety level of 120 mg per cu/m.
Also 101 hot spots were reportedly found in Chiang Mia province on Sunday, 26 of which were in Mae Chaem district followed by Omkoi and Samoeng districts with 11 spots each.
