Coronavirus
(Western) smoke gets in your eyes
During months of the COVID outbreak, many people have taken opportunities to spend time outdoors.
Right now, that may not be such a good option, because smoke from wildfires on the West Coast are spreading across the country.
Allergist Todd Mahr at Gundersen in La Crosse says smoky air could cause problems for people who have lung conditions or heart problems.
And staying inside can become even more risky, Mahr says, if you try certain methods of cooking indoors.
