The Health Protection Agency (HPA) has urged the public to take special measures against worsening haze conditions across parts of the Maldives. Air Quality Index readings reached 165 in Kulhudhuhfushi City and 158 in Funadhoo, Shaviyani Atoll, while Male' stood at 127 and Fuvamulah and Addu City had the best air quality.
One outlet so far Only Byline has reported this among the sources we monitor. A gap in what we monitor, not proof that others did not report it.
Nothing to compare yet. If another monitored source reports it, its headline appears beside this one.
The HPA said the AQI range of 151-200 is a high risk for adverse health effects, including lung and heart disease.
