The Ministry of Health stressed the need not to be directly exposed to cold air currents and to avoid a sudden transition from warm to cold conditions and vice versa, noting the importance of maintaining breathing through the nose, because it is considered a filter for natural air, and it also enters the air into the chest at body temperature..
And she called on citizens not to leave the house on days when storms and dust spread, except for compelling circumstances and when needed, provided that the nose is covered and heavy clothes are worn.
She said that there are three categories that are most likely to suffer from some health problems in this weather, explaining that they are allergic patients, people with respiratory diseases, heart patients and diabetes.
The ministry confirmed that these groups are the most vulnerable to being affected by the dust wave and weather fluctuations, and when going out, wear the mask well to avoid any dirt from entering the body, noting that this weather increases the chances of infection with pneumonia and bronchitis.
