As a former land manager we control burned scrub and dead wood over many
acres. We knew and expected Poison Ivy and Oak to be present in most of
those areas. We needed to inform the town, get permits, and have some
oversight before burning. All person were supplied with respirators and
chemical suits. Other precautions were taken as well. But no fatalities.

There's an understatement. Poison ivy smoke is a good way to get killed.
Burning brush or wood contaminated with poison ivy is a very bad idea.
