Air quality alert issued for Outagamie County
An air quality alert was issued by the National Weather Service in Green Bay at 03:42 a.m. on Thursday, June 12. This warning applies to Vilas, Oneida, Forest, Florence, Northern Marinette, Lincoln, Langlade, Menominee, Northern Oconto, Door, Marathon, Shawano, Wood, Portage, Waupaca, Outagamie, Brown, Kewaunee, Waushara, Winnebago, Calumet, Manitowoc, Southern Marinette and Southern Oconto counties. The NWS warns: "Sensitive groups: Make outdoor activities shorter and less intense. It is OK to be active outdoors but take more breaks. Watch for symptoms such as coughing or shortness of breath. People with asthma: Follow your asthma action plan and keep quick relief medicine handy. People with heart disease: Symptoms such as palpitations, shortness of breath, or unusual fatigue may indicate a serious problem. If you have any of these, contact your health care provider. Additional Details: Canadian wildfire smoke has mixed down to the surface, leading to enhanced p.m.2.5 concentrations. For more information on current air quality, please see: At 3:42 a.m., the NWS issued a statement including the following information: "The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources has issued an Air Quality Advisory for the following counties: Brown, Calumet, Langlade, Lincoln, Marathon, Menominee, Oconto, Outagamie, Portage, Shawano, Waupaca, Winnebago, Wood. WHAT: The p.m.2.5 AQI is expected to reach the Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups level. WHERE: Northern and eastern Wisconsin. WHEN: Until 3 p.m." Air quality alerts are issued when elevated levels of pollutants in the air make it unsafe to be outside. In Wisconsin, Canadian wildfire smoke has often led to poor air quality. Particles from wildfire smoke can cause minor symptoms, such as mild eye or throat irritation, or more serious heart and lung issues in some cases, according to the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources . Wildfire smoke particles, which are called p.m.2.5, are especially dangerous for children, older adults, pregnant people and those with heart or respiratory conditions. The best way to protect yourself from poor air quality is to stay indoors, especially when the Air Quality Index reaches above 101, which is classified as unhealthy for sensitive groups, according to the Environmental Protection Agency . Here are some additional steps you can take to protect yourself from poor air quality, including wildfire smoke, according to the Wisconsin DNR: Keep windows and doors closed. Use an indoor air purifier. Run your AC on recirculate with a high-efficiency air filter. Avoid activities that can increase indoor pollution, like vacuuming, using candles, frying foods or using gas appliances. Use a damp cloth to trap and clean up dust, instead of a dry cloth or duster, which will only make the dust airborne again. If you must go outside, wear a N95 mask. The DNR has interactive air quality maps, which show the AQI and any active alerts or advisories by county. You can view them on the department's website , or you can also type in your ZIP code into the website to view air quality in your area.

Alerts Urging People to Monitor Themselves for Coughs Return to One State
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Air quality officials are once again advising people in Wisconsin to monitor themselves for symptoms such as coughs as Canadian wildfire smoke descends across the state. National Weather Service (NWS) meteorologist Todd Rieck, who works at the La Crosse, Wisconsin, office, told Newsweek that Thursday might be the worst day for smoke impacts. Why It Matters Over the past few weeks, wildfire smoke from Canada has descended into the U.S. and worsened the air quality in some states. Among them, Wisconsin has been on high alert, with residents advised to monitor themselves for symptoms such as coughs if they are exposed to the polluted air. Earlier this week, much of the smoke dissipated but has once again returned. What to Know Much of Wisconsin is under the air quality alert, which was issued by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources on Thursday morning. The alert encompasses northern, northcentral, northeastern, southwestern and central Wisconsin. A stock photo shows a woman coughing while outdoors.

Liubomyr Vorona/Getty Current air quality monitoring shows that air quality has reached levels that are unhealthy for sensitive groups in parts of central and southwestern Wisconsin. Sensitive groups such as those with respiratory diseases, asthma, or children and the elderly were advised to be particularly cautious and monitor themselves for symptoms such as coughing. "Make outdoor activities shorter and less intense. It is OK to be active outdoors but take more breaks," the alert said. "Watch for symptoms such as coughing or shortness of breath. People with asthma: Follow your asthma action plan and keep quick relief medicine handy. People with heart disease: Symptoms such as palpitations, shortness of breath, or unusual fatigue may indicate a serious problem. If you have any of these, contact your health care provider." Air quality alerts are also in place in Montana, Minnesota, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Maryland, New York, and New Jersey, but these alerts didn't mention coughing. Earlier in the week, the smoke prompted alerts in Minnesota, in which people were asked to keep their windows closed overnight to prevent smoke from getting inside their homes. What People Are Saying Rieck told Newsweek: "Currently the upper-level flow is allowing for more air to filter southeast over the last couple days and especially today, it might be the worst of the bunch. As we start to move into the weekend, we should start getting a little more ridging in the upper atmosphere, so that's going to bump the winds back north. The smoke should follow suit and stay mostly farther to the north as a result, and the air quality should improve as we get into the weekend." An air quality alert in place in Wisconsin said: "Canadian wildfire smoke has mixed down to the surface, leading to enhanced PM2.5 concentrations." What Happens Next The air quality alert will remain in place until Thursday. Improved air quality will move in from the north and east, the alert said.

CCRAN Announces Its Third Annual Pan-Tumour Biomarkers Conference: Transforming Cancer Care for Patients Through Precision Medicine, Policy, and Partnerships
TORONTO, June 12, 2025 /CNW/ - The Colorectal Cancer Resource & Action Network (CCRAN) proudly announces its third annual Pan-Tumour Biomarkers Conference, taking place virtually June 19 - 20, 2025. As the role of comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) and biomarker-driven treatments become increasingly vital in cancer care, this event reaffirms CCRAN's position at the forefront of Canada's precision medicine movement. The 2025 Conference arrives at a critical time. With provinces and territories working to align clinical innovation with system delivery, this year's event brings together leaders across healthcare, policy, research, industry, and patient communities to explore what it will take to embed comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) into the fabric of cancer care - consistently, efficiently, and with long-term sustainability in mind. With a curated agenda centered on health system readiness, policy development and advocacy strategies, the Conference will drive widespread integration of genomic testing, specifically CGP, across cancer care in Canada. From laboratory infrastructure to funding models and clinical adoption, speakers will explore both the science and systems behind matching patients with the most effective treatments for their unique cancer profile. A key highlight of the 2025 Conference is the keynote presentation by the Conference Board of Canada, wherein a groundbreaking cost-benefit analysis will be unveiled to showcase the transformative value of CGP across five tumour types – lung, colorectal, breast, pancreatic and prostate. This study will demonstrate not only the substantial return on investment in modernizing Canada's testing landscape, but more importantly, quantify the profound benefits to patients, including improved survival outcomes, enhanced quality of life, reduced treatment toxicity, and faster access to targeted therapies. This critical data will inform policy decisions and provide compelling evidence for healthcare leaders to accelerate the adoption of precision medicine, ultimately ensuring Canadian cancer patients receive the most effective, personalized care possible. The event also builds on CCRAN's continued efforts to mobilize support for biomarker-driven cancer care through education, policy dialogue, and cross-sector partnerships. CCRAN has played a vital role in amplifying the urgency of public access to biomarker testing and is also helping to align national conversations around the need for timely, standardized, and publicly funded diagnostics. "Precision oncology must be accessible to every Canadian metastatic cancer patient, regardless of geography or circumstance," said Filomena Servidio-Italiano, President & CEO, CCRAN. "This Conference brings together the expertise and momentum required to overcome barriers and chart a clear path forward for advancing genomic testing in Canada's cancer care system."
