How trustworthy is AQI (Air Quality Index)? What is PM2.5? And at what distance does fire zone adjacency stop mattering? Is there a reliable way to test the safety of your water? Are kids safe indoors at school without masks?
Join KCRW and R&S Kayne Foundation for a public information panel and Q&A session regarding immediate and long-term health considerations for families and individuals returning to homes within the immediate vicinity of the fires. This free virtual event will provide evidence-based information and guidance regarding health concerns, including what you should or shouldn’t be worried about, exposure to environmental toxins from ash and clean-up efforts, and best practices to ensure children can safely return to their neighborhoods or, if needed, relocate. Have specific questions? Our panelists will answer concerns live during the session.
Moderator: Madeleine Brand, host of KCRW’s Press Play
