illnesses10. SO2 emissions when mixed with other chemicalsin the atmosphere form sulfuric acid causing damage to trees, foliage, and farmland, and formingair particulates. Table 1 documents the health implications of the six pollutants of interest for thisstudy. AQI or Air Quality Index is a measure of air pollution, which ranges from 0 to 500. Whenthe value is less than 50 or below, it is a representation of good air quality; and when it exceeds100, the air quality is designated as unhealthy. The values close to 300 are hazardous11.The six harmful pollutants were selected for the study on the impacts of covid-19 on air pollution.The research that was conducted by the student interns during their summer internships, as well asstudents in the
