Pollen levels in Islamabad soar to record high, residents urged to take precautions
ISLAMABAD (92 News) Pollen levels in Islamabad have surged to an alarming 45,916, sparking a rise in allergy-related health issues, particularly among those with asthma and other respiratory conditions.
The Pakistan Meteorological Department reports that Sector H-8 recorded the highest concentration of pollen, followed by Sector G-6 with 12,628 and Sector E-8 with 11,019 particles per cubic metre.
Medical professionals are concerned that prolonged exposure to high pollen levels could worsen symptoms for those with pre-existing respiratory conditions. In response, doctors are advising residents, particularly those vulnerable to allergies, to wear masks and limit outdoor activities.
Other areas, including Sector F-10, have reported pollen levels of 8,251. Experts urge residents to stay indoors during peak hours, keep windows closed, and use antihistamines as needed.
