Coronavirus Death Rates Linked <br />to Air Pollution, Says New Study The new study was conducted by <br />researchers with the Harvard University <br />T.H. Chan School of Public Health. Harvard Researchers, via 'The New York Times' The study found a 15 percent <br />increase in the possibility of death for <br />a person who lived in a county with <br />elevated levels of fine particulate matter. While health officials have <br />been making such claims, the <br />study is the first to clearly link <br />pollution to coronavirus deaths. In addition, the study found that just a slight <br />decrease in particulates over the past 20 <br />years in Manhattan would have resulted in 248 <br />fewer deaths due to coronavirus so far.
