24 hours after arriving in Singapore, our throats and coughs started clearing. Siyuan who has been plagued with a persistent cough threw up non-stop for an hour midweek. His throat and chest then cleared as the cleaner air in Singapore helped him recover.
Check out the filters from my apartment in Shanghai *yikes!*

The Blue Airs really make a difference (sleep markedly better and etc).
I'm sure you can find Blue Air in HK too (IQ air more expensive and doesn't perform as well per Consumer Reports tests in U.S.)
Aaah... the things we do to live in Choina (don't get me started on the water filters and sourcing organics).
