| On the other hand there are those that are most adversely affected by the pollution in DF. For 28 months of living there, I would wake up every morning with throat congestion and would spit up phlegm or congestion 6-7 times before leaving for work. My eyes were constantly stinging. This experience was the same for a student of mine who went to DF for advanced medical studies in dermatololgy. She complained even more of the stinging sensation. |
Well, the statistics just don't back up what you are implying. The problem with pollution in DF mainly occurs in the afternoon, not at night or in the morning. The O3 numbers are very low when people are in bed at night. Only PM10 has a significant value, and it's usually below 100 on the IMECA scale. |
