The air quality index, or AQI, was\ncreated as an easy way to correlate levels of different pollutants\nto one scale. The higher the AQI value, the greater the health\nconcern.\n\nWhen pollution levels are elevated, the New York State Department of\nHealth recommends that individuals consider limiting strenuous\noutdoor physical activity to reduce the risk of adverse health\neffects. People who may be especially sensitive to the effects of\nelevated levels of pollutants include the very young and those with\npre existing respiratory problems such as asthma or heart disease.\nThose with symptoms should consider consulting their personal\nphysician.\n\nFor additional information, please visit the New York State\nDepartment of Environmental Conservation website at,\nhttps://on.ny.gov/nyaqi, or call the Air Quality Hotline at 1-800-\n535-1345."}
