Selangor Health Dept: Take preventive steps to reduce health effects caused by haze
10 September 2019
Selangor Health director, Datuk Dr Khalid Ibrahim said this was based on the haze readings at five permanent stations and one “Mobile Continuous Air Quality Monitoring ” station in the state, where the air pollutant index showed that the air quality in five areas had reached the “unhealthy level” yesterday and today.
Among the preventive measures recommended by the Selangor Health Department to reduce the health effects of the haze is to ensure the air indoors is always clean by avoiding contamination of cigarette smoke, and to close the windows to present the haze from going indoors. The five clinics are the Kota Damansara Health Clinic , the Section 7 KK in Shah Alam for the Petaling district, KK Pandamaran, Klang, KK Teluk Datok, Kuala Langat and KK Kuala Selangor.
