With wildfires already affecting many parts of Can With wildfires already affecting many parts of Canada, we want to make sure you're prepared to stay safe—especially if you or a loved one is living with asthma. Wildfire smoke is a serious concern—especially for people with asthma. It contains harmful pollutants, including fine particulate matter that can settle deep in the lungs and worsen asthma symptoms. Even if you live far from a wildfire, smoke can travel thousands of kilometers and still impact your health. If you have asthma, it's essential to take precautions. Here are our 6 top tips for staying safe during wildfire season. Visit our website for more information and supports. #asthma #wildfires #wildfireseason

At the World Health Organization’s 78th World He At the World Health Organization’s 78th World Health Assembly, member states officially adopted a ground-breaking resolution to improve lung health worldwide. This marks the first comprehensive global commitment to addressing the full range of respiratory diseases, including asthma, while tackling major contributing factors like air pollution, climate change, and the tobacco industry. Asthma Canada is proud to have joined our global partners through the Global Allergy & Airways Patient Platform (GAAPP), and our national partners through the National Lung Health Alliance (NHLA) in Canada, in advocating for this vital step forward. This is a major victory for millions of people around the world living with lung disease. The resolution calls on countries to develop national lung health strategies, improve primary care, expand access to treatment and diagnostics, and invest in prevention efforts. #Asthma #LungHealth @who @gaapporg
