    Recorded at around 10am this morning, the West Lake area (Tay Ho, Hanoi) had a high pollution index, with a pollution index score of 349 brown, which is a dangerous level.

    The buildings around West Lake are immersed in a hazy atmosphere.

    Concerned about the impact of pollution on her health, Ms. Ha Thi Tam (Tay Ho, Hanoi) has recently postponed her exercise time to later. “Now I only go to the gym at 8am, not early like before because of the polluted weather. Now I have to wear a mask to protect my health,” Ms. Tam shared.

    Although it is a place with many trees, the West Lake area is still seriously polluted because near the lake, the large amount of fog makes it difficult for air circulation and dust to escape.

    Not only the West Lake area, many districts in Hanoi's inner city are also seriously polluted. Even though it is sunny at noon, the sky of Hanoi is still shrouded in a layer of polluted fog.

    Faced with prolonged air pollution, the Ministry of Health recommends that when the air quality index is at a poor level, people should avoid outdoor activities for a period of time, encourage indoor activities, and use masks that can prevent fine dust to reduce exposure to polluted air.
