It’s not only bad outside, but inside too. You can not escape it.

 

You CAN escape it, provided your living space can be pretty well sealed off from the outside -- doors and windows closed and sealed, no big open gaps allowing outside air in other than door jams, etc.

 

The answer, along with a bit of money, is purchasing and using HEPA air purifiers that are capable of filtering out PM2.5 particles present in your indoors air, and keeping the indoors air PM2.5 levels at or below recommended levels.

 

Although prices for HEPA air purifiers often tend to be over-inflated compared to purchasing the same kinds of units elsewhere, there are reasonably priced, effective units available for sale here from manufacturers like Hatari, Sharp and Xiaomi, among others, usually for at/above $100 U.S. per purifier unit.

I have a friend in the US who sought my advice on whether Chiang Mai would be suitable for her elderly father who has health problems to retire to. I let her know in no uncertain terms that it would be a very, very bad idea.

Chang mai is in the news today as having the worst air quality in the world
