Note
The plural follows the countable meanings of exposure: the photographs taken on a roll of film, a firm's exposures to financial loss, the scandals someone brings to light, and the outlooks a house has toward sun, sky or view. Where exposure means the bare state of being unprotected, or lack of shelter from the weather, it is normally uncountable, so suffering from exposure stays singular.
