The Impact of Air Pollution on the Incidence of Asthma: A Comparative Analysis of Regional Factors

Abstract

Air quality is closely related to human health and has attracted the attention of governments and people around the world. This paper aims to study whether there is a concrete link between the development of asthma and air pollution. By adopting comparative analysis, it examines three regions (Seoul, Sydney, and San Joaquin Valley) in terms of how different sources of air pollution affect the incidence of asthma. The results indicate that agricultural and industrial pollution cause asthma outbreaks worst in certain areas. The implication of this paper is that the local governments should develop programs to train public health professionals through public health networks. These health networks provide practical training in epidemiology and strategic planning, and help achieve effectively Communication with other health professionals and the public through public speaking, academic reports and scientific investigations, while advocating for other community managers for improved community health. In the meanwhile, it is crucial to improve local air quality through reasonable environmental regulation.
