The harm of sandstorm to people

Sandstorm is a natural disaster, which brings a lot of harm to people. First of all, the strong wind of sandstorm and the high-speed flying dust will have a direct impact on human health, especially on the respiratory system. People easily inhale fine particles suspended in the air, causing respiratory diseases, such as asthma and bronchitis. Secondly, sandstorms will also reduce visibility, bring great difficulties to transportation and increase the risk of traffic accidents. In addition, sandstorms have a negative impact on crop yield and quality. Fine particles in sandstorms will cover the surface of crops, hinder photosynthesis and limit plant growth. In addition, sandstorms will also destroy buildings and infrastructure and affect social and economic development. To sum up, sandstorms do great harm to people's health, transportation, agriculture and economy.
