AIR QUALITY & COVID-19 (corona virus)

Scientists also found that air pollution contributes to the severity of the disease. A nationwide study, conducted by Harvard University, showed that counties in the USA with high levels of air pollution before the COVID-19 crisis have higher death rates (defined as COVID-19 deaths per total population).

Studies reveal that indoor air may be 70 times more polluted than the air outside.

According to the National Air Duct Cleaners Association an average home collects as much as 40 pounds of dust, dirt and allergens in a year. This is alarming given that this dirt contains about 40,000 dust mites and hosts unhealthy bacteria, mold and fungi.
