AQI
Dr. Roopa Rechel Premanand Consultant - Pulmonologist at Kauvery Hospitals explains the recent buzz about the Air Quality Index (AQI). AQI is an indicator developed by government agencies to assess air pollution. An AQI below 50 is considered good, between 51 and 200 is moderate, and between 201 and 300 is severe, posing higher risks to public health. New Delhi, based on AQI, is the second most polluted capital city in the world. Understanding AQI helps us gauge air quality and take necessary precautions.
