  • Wildfire smoke has likely killed more than 1,200 people in California this year, according to Stanford researchers.

  • That's because smoke contains harmful particles that can enter the lungs and bloodstream, raising people's risk of heart attacks, strokes, and premature death.

  • The analysis only looked at people over 65 in California, so its estimate of smoke-related deaths is probably an undercount.

Ouch. Did my normal cough vomit thing at 6.30ish this morning but just getting over it, it was fine today and will be for a while so it'll be fine. I know I'm prone to it, it's just something I have to put up with. When we have good air days, I'm having a happy day :)
 
Its tragic, but also good to keep in mind the sheer numbers of people in the area. 1,200 dead but how many million people exposed to the smoke?

I was doing the ole "cough-vomit" thing one time and coughed so hard I cracked a rib. Really sucked, made it hard to breath and that's when I realized why its so difficult for a UFC fighter to continue on with a broken rib.

Oh damn. Sorry. I get a sore chest most mornings and never make it to the bathroom so I have carrier bags in every room. Not a nice conversation, sorry. As soon as I cough in the morning I know it's coming. Normally Gateorade but milk this morning as well which...yeah.
 
Thanks for ruining the air quality and contributing to climate change asshole.

How hits did the gender reveal video get that caused it?

Do you have asthma or smoke cigs or something? I've always had breathing problems since I was a kid so its been sort of a lifelong thing with me.
