“Exposure to air pollution linked to greater risk of Covid-19 hospitalisation, report finds” Independent – “A person’s previous exposure to air pollution may mean they are more likely to need hospital treatment if they catch Covid-19, a new report has found. Researchers from Imperial College London have found a link between people’s exposure to polluted air and how ill they will become if they contract Covid-19. The report, which was commissioned by the Mayor of London and led by Imperial’s Environmental Research Group, saw scientists evaluate studies from all over the world.” https://www.independent.co.uk/news/health/covid-air-pollution-link-risk-b1914580.html.  This can also be found on the Imperial College News https://www.imperial.ac.uk/news/229233/long-term-pollution-linked-greater-risk-covid-19/.
