They're asking to avoid being outdoors in Bilbao because of the presence of Saharan particles in the air
The City Council has reported that there is dust from the Sahara in the air and has been advised to exercise extreme caution, especially among people with respiratory or cardiovascular diseases, small and old.
Bilbao City Council recommends that citizens reduce long outdoor stays due to the presence of Saharan dust in the air. Suspended particles have increased in the city.
In a statement, the City Council has indicated that the recommendation is addressed to all citizens, but focuses on special care for the most vulnerable groups, such as people with chronic respiratory disorders, cardiovascular disease or diabetes, as well as children and the elderly.
Among the measures proposed, the City Council recommends avoiding activities involving physical exercise or outdoor effort, especially at noon, when the concentration of particles may be higher.
It also recommends using public transport as far as possible, avoiding contact with dust, pollen or animals that may cause allergies and aggravating symptoms associated with air pollution.
The City Council has indicated that these recommendations will be maintained until weather conditions change and the presence of suspended particles in the air is reduced.
