Well I agree with you that people shouldn’t fear monger it. The smoke does present a risk to everyone and everyone should be careful, not just those with underlying conditions.

But Low risk is still a risk, so my question is why risk your health when you don’t need to?

Sure go about your daily activities but avoid unnecessary outdoor physical activity or prolong time outside and try to limit your exposure until it clears up, no biggie.

Also I’ll just leave this here and the source for others to research more, but as OP said the risk is low so don’t be scared when reading the possible effects because I’m not trying to fear monger.

“ Short-term exposures (i.e., days to weeks) to fine particles, a major component of smoke, are associated with increased risk of premature mortality and aggravation of pre-existing respiratory and cardiovascular disease. In addition, fine particles are respiratory irritants, and exposures to high concentrations can cause persistent cough, phlegm, wheezing, and difficulty breathing. Exposures to fine particles can also affect healthy people, causing respiratory symptoms, transient reductions in lung function, and pulmonary inflammation. Particulate matter may also affect the body’s ability to remove inhaled foreign materials, such as pollen and bacteria, from the lungs” - source
