People with the conditions listed below should be aware of these risks and may want to try and avoid exposure. Please be aware that in intense actions, police behavior can be unpredictable, and avoidance is not always possible. Folks with respiratory diseases, such as asthma, emphysema, etc. risk exacerbation, permanent damage or even death if exposed. Vulnerable humans such as infants, the elderly, and the immune compromised, risk intensified and possibly life-threatening responses. Women who are or could be pregnant, or who are trying to get pregnant, may be at risk of spontaneous abortion, or increased risk of birth defects.
Nursing mothers risk passing toxins on to their infant.
People wearing contact lenses may experience increased eye irritation and damage due to chemicals being trapped under the lenses. After being exposed, do not bring contaminated clothing indoors unless it is wrapped in a plastic bag. As soon as you can, wash your hair and all contaminated clothing in a strong detergent. Remember, it is only temporary, and we are extremely strong. Contact lenses trap the irritating gases and chemical compounds underneath them and may increase the amount of damage and irritation.
