Study: Air Pollution Contributes To 500,000 Newborn Deaths A Year

"The number is just staggering," says epidemiologist Rakesh Ghosh at the University of California, San Francisco, who led the study. Each year about 2.42 million infants die within the first 27 days of life. The new study suggests air pollutions contribute to about 20% of those deaths

Fine particulates, or PM 2.5, are especially dangerous forms of pollution because the particles are small enough to reach deep into a person's lungs and even absorb into the bloodstream, as well. For each 10 unit increase in PM 2.5 over the course of pregnancy, a woman's risk of giving birth to a low-weight baby increases by about 6%, Ghosh and his team report in the journal"This risk might appear small," Ghosh says,"but when you multiply that 6% by the enormous amount of exposure that moms have in some countries, their risk multiples by orders of magnitude."

Contributes what and how much or is this more nonsense that no one’s buying or taking if given away

therightblue really really tragic

So lock everyone up and make them stay at home. That should solve the issue.

Pro-Life. Some restrictions apply. Offer not valid after birth.

Tell the pro-lifers quick! They’ll be so freaked they’ll start... 😐

Calling all pro lifers

And the essay you will be writing today will contemplate where does a pro-life movement draw the line post-womb and is it where business profits are more important than actual life (even an infant’s). Please footnote for references to anti-regulation, anti-environmental policies.

We need a plan that will be cost efficient but also significantly curb pollutants emitted especially in the United States.

And republicans removing restrictions has made it worse. Pro-life? Not.

Arriadna Ban cars

Arriadna Wonder how many deragulators and anti-climate change type people consider themselves to be so called pro-lifers?

Oh, where are the pro-lifers? Oh yeah, shouting down environmental causes.

Quickieleaks How is this not a national medical priority? How?

This is devastating.

But. Abortion.

Fake News!

no are not falling for the great reset. stfu

Irony; the same group of pro-life extremists, who don't give a rats arse about the destruction to the environment are accepting infant deaths.

Uhhhh but ban Planned Parenthood will solve this

And that's why we need regulations and yet the party that doesn't want to let women choose with their own bodies pro-lifers are the ones that are always trying to lift regulations and pollute
