lower levels of exposure, CO causes mild effects that are often
mistaken for the flu. These symptoms include headaches,
dizziness, disorientation, nausea and fatigue. The effects of CO
exposure can vary greatly from person to person depending on
age, overall health and the concentration and length of exposure.
