In a recent nationwide research study from Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, researchers has found that people with COVID-19 who resides in US regions with significant levels of air pollution (metric: PM2.5) are more likely to die from the diseases in comparison with people who reside in less polluted areas. This study sheds light on the long-term exposure of air pollution and COVID-19 mortality in the United States. The study will be soon published in a peer-reviewed and open-access scientific journal, Science Advances and was first published on medRxiv, the preprint archive server for health sciences
