ALT A montage of two combined screenshots of an article on The Telegraph website. The headline says “The surprising habits linked to dementia.” Underneath it says “Having a wood-burning stove.” There is a drawn-style illustration of a wood fire burning inside a cut-away view of a head, as if it were cooking the brain. Text under the illustration notes that there’s good evidence of a link between air pollution and dementia. PM2.5 can be deposited in the brain, causing damage.
Prepare for Poor Air Quality Days: Older adults are more vulnerable to wildfire smoke. Keep reliever medications accessible and make sure you have at least a one‑week supply. Planning ahead helps protect your heart and lungs on smoky days.
Wildfire smoke is becoming more common, but a little preparation goes a long way. Check the AQHI & have a plan for days with poor air quality. Seal gaps around windows/doors, gather HVAC filters & air purifiers, and know where to find cleaner air spaces in your community.
