Air quality monitoring data for analysis of the pace and intensity of the coronavirus (COVID-19) spread in Central and Eastern Europe and the Balkans
The pace and intensity of the coronavirus (COVID-19) spread is potentially influenced by many factors, including air pollution. Studies have suggested that air pollution increases the incidence and the severity of the disease. However, the current data are too limited to be certain.
