Is there a level where it's dangerous to anyone? Is there a point where no-one should go to work?

When we were "record breaking" beyond Delhi, Sarajevo, Ulaanbaatar - we were around 3500-3800. What is this almost 6000 bullshit?

Why does it say worsening? everything about this is fubar.

for reference 20ug/m3 is equivalent to a cigarette/day.

So if you're in Monash, the equivalent of 700 cigarettes ? Yikes. No wonder my lungs feel painful

So does 1000 ug/m3 mean 50 cigarettes/day? How much difference does staying indoors actually make?
