How changes in AQI levels impact asthma and COPD patients, doctor explains
Most of northern India, particularly the National Capital Region (NCR), readies itself for a typical yet dangerous event as winter draws near: a sharp decline in air quality. A significant measure of pollution levels, the Air Quality Index (AQI), often resides in the "poor" or "very poor" category, signalling serious health risks, especially for individuals with chronic respiratory conditions like asthma and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).
