According to the American Lung Association’s annual “state of the air” report, about 17 million Texans are breathing air contaminated with unhealthy levels of particle pollutants. By studying the air quality indexes, The American Lung Association can determine the number of days that reach unhealthy levels.
If you have pre-existing health conditions you are more likely to face severe problems when contacting COVID-19. If you live in areas with poor air quality, you are likely to develop respiratory issues.
According to the study Houston, Corpus Christi’s nearby neighbor, is one of the worst U.S. cities for particle pollution. Particle pollution can include tiny bits of dust and ash, as well as mold and mold spores. The more you are exposed to poor air, the more likely your health can be affected. Particle pollution increases the risk of cancer, heart attack, stroke, and pre-mature death. Children who are exposed to poor air stand a higher risk of developing childhood asthma.
And it doesn’t have to be exposure to outdoor air. If anything, continuous and prolonged exposure to poor indoor air quality is perhaps worse. This is why mold should be removed from your home as soon as it is discovered. Both the CDC and the EPA warn against breathing in mold spores.
