How and are you talking about air pollution?

How and are you talking about air pollution?
Editorial

Pages: 16 - 18

Evidence is increasingly showing us the negative impact of air pollution on conditions like asthma (Tiotiu, 2020). Air quality is such a pertinent issue that it has been included as
a standalone topic in the national bundle for children and young people’s asthma (NHS England, 2022a). This editorial uses asthma as an example when considering how
the air quality conversation might be embedded in day-to-day patient work, but it should be noted that air quality impacts everyone, of all ages, and every part of the health spectrum.
