The Child of Krakatau emitted volcanic ash for several days

I think all know about Mount Krakatau that erupted in 1883. The eruption swept away everything around it, reaching the height of some 50 meters above sea level. The city of Telukbetung was once under the sea water. For the last several days, the child of Krakatau, which is now big enough and observable from a ferry that crosses Sunda strait, have been sending out burning lava and volcanic ash. My front veranda floor was slightly covered with the ash. Do not disregard volcanic ash as it contain dangerous dust that will disturb your lung function, skin disorder and perhaps other diseases. The residents living not far from Krakatau site are strongly advised to wear dust-filtering mask. Have you heard of this yet? Your take is highly appreciated.
