Health guidance
What Does Guangzhou’s AQI Mean?
General US EPA band education — not a personal medical diagnosis. Prefer official local advisories for decisions.
Good AQI 0–50
Air quality is considered satisfactory, and air pollution poses little or no risk for most people.
Sensitive groups: No extra precautions are typically needed for outdoor activity under the US EPA “Good” band. Local conditions can still vary.
Moderate AQI 51–100 Current band
Air quality is acceptable; there may be a minor risk for a very small number of people who are unusually sensitive to air pollution.
Sensitive groups: Unusually sensitive people may notice mild symptoms on prolonged outdoor exposure. Most people do not need activity changes.
Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups AQI 101–150
Members of sensitive groups may experience health effects; the general public is less likely to be affected.
Sensitive groups: Children, older adults, and people with asthma, COPD, or heart disease should consider reducing prolonged or heavy outdoor exertion.
Unhealthy AQI 151–200
Everyone may begin to experience health effects; sensitive groups may experience more serious effects.
Sensitive groups: Sensitive groups should avoid outdoor activity when possible. Everyone may begin to feel effects — prefer indoor air when you can.
Very Unhealthy AQI 201–300
Health alert: everyone may experience more serious health effects.
Sensitive groups: Health alert: limit outdoor exposure for everyone. Sensitive groups should stay indoors and follow official local guidance.
Hazardous AQI 301–500
Health warning of emergency conditions: the entire population is more likely to be affected.
Sensitive groups: Emergency conditions are more likely. Avoid outdoor activity and follow official local emergency and health sources.
