Air Quality and COVID‑19: Connections, Health Impacts, and Racial Disparities
Wednesday, July 15, 2020: 3 p.m. - 4 p.m. CT
Research suggests that people with long-term exposure to fine particulate matter pollution face higher death rates from COVID‑19, and that people of color, particularly African Americans, face greater than average risks from the health impacts of both air pollution and COVID‑19. Join us as we present findings and discuss the research/public policy collaborations underway to understand and mitigate these interconnected health risks.
