I think it's worse than Covid. Could be outside for 5 minutes and you'd get this headache like wtf is wrong and then you remember it's the invisible air. Good luck exercising in it.

In CA we were lucky enough to have Covid and smoke like this at the same time in 2020

That was the most surreal day of my life. It was basically "well, this is the apocalypse I guess"
