“…Even though the CRFs have independent health effect estimates, there could still be residual double-counting between pollutants. However, a recent independent meta analysis [71] and large nationally representative cohort studies indicate that long term ozone [12,72,73] and NO 2 have additional effect on mortality beyond PM 2.5 [74][75][76].…”

Oil and gas production is one of the largest emitters of methane, a potent greenhouse gas and a significant contributor of air pollution emissions. While research on methane emissions from oil and gas production has grown rapidly, there is comparatively limited information on the distribution of impacts of this sector on air quality and associated health impacts. Understanding the contribution of air quality and health impacts of oil and gas can be useful for designing mitigation strategies. Here we assess air quality and human health impacts associated with ozone, fine particulate matter, and nitrogen dioxide from the oil and gas sector in the US in 2016, and compare this impact with that of the associated methane emissions. We find that air pollution in 2016 from the oil and gas sector in the US resulted in 410 000 asthma exacerbations, 2200 new cases of childhood asthma and 7500 excess deaths, with $77 billion in total health impacts. NO2 was the highest contributor to health impacts (37%) followed by ozone (35%), and then PM2.5 (28%). When monetized, these air quality health impacts of oil and gas production exceeded estimated climate impact costs from methane leakage by a factor of 3. These impacts add to the total life cycle impacts of oil and gas, and represent potential additional health benefits of strategies that reduce consumption of oil and gas. Policies to reduce oil and gas production emissions will lead to additional and significant health benefits from co-pollutant reductions that are not currently quantified or monetized.

Rhinoviruses have persisted throughout the COVID‐19 pandemic, despite other seasonal respiratory viruses (influenza, parainfluenza, respiratory syncytial virus, adenoviruses, human metapneumovirus) being mostly suppressed by pandemic restrictions, such as masking and other forms of social distancing, especially during the national lockdown periods. Rhinoviruses, as nonenveloped viruses, are known to transmit effectively via the airborne and fomite route, which has allowed infection among children and adults to continue despite pandemic restrictions. Rhinoviruses are also known to cause and exacerbate acute wheezing episodes in children predisposed to this condition. Noninfectious causes such as air pollutants (PM 2.5 , PM 10 ) can also play a role. In this retrospective ecological study, we demonstrate the correlation between UK national sentinel rhinovirus surveillance, the level of airborne particulates, and the changing patterns of pediatric emergency department presentations for acute wheezing, before and during the COVID‐19 pandemic (2018–2021) in a large UK teaching hospital.

“…Particulate matter and nitrogen dioxide are emitted in fossil fuel combustions, one of the main sources of greenhouse gas emissions. A bulk of epidemiological studies has linked air pollution exposure with the development of asthma, 47 asthma exacerbations, 48 and lung function impairment in children. 35 Although early life exposure to high levels of air pollutants has been associated with increased risk of pollen sensitisation, 49 associations are generally not strong 50 and are even less clear for clinical symptoms (ie, rhinoconjunctivitis).…”
