Despite dangerous breathing conditions caused by the San Francisco Bay Area's devastating wild fires, health agencies are not making any official moves to shut down outdoor dining, but they are strongly urging people to stay home (Via EaterSF)
When we faced these conditions in 2018, it seemed manageable to stay home for a few days, especially given the serious threat the particulate in the air presents. The Environmental Protection Agency The biggest health threat from smoke is from fine particles. These microscopic particles can penetrate deep into your lungs. They can cause a range of health problems, from burning eyes and a runny nose to aggravated chronic heart and lung diseases.
At a press conference Wednesday, Dr. Grant Colfax, San Francisco’s director of health, said that the pollution is so severe that “everyone may begin to experience some adverse health effects and members of more sensitive groups may experience more serious effects.” Both Colfax and Mayor London Breed said residents should close their windows, stay home, and “minimize exposure” to outside air.
When asked by Eater SF if SF officials planned to provide area restaurants with additional guidance around outdoor dining during these days of bad air quality, a spokesperson with San Francisco’s Department of Emergency Management said only that “Per, outdoor dining restaurants must comply with each requirement listed in Exhibit A and prepare a Health and Safety Plan substantially in the format of Exhibit B,” referring in both cases to health orders related to coronavirus, not air pollution.
