"The Silent Killer" is about how more than 50 million Americans suffer from allergies, many of which are caused by INDOOR air pollutants. With most of the others, their allergies are AGGRAVATED by indoor air pollutants. For those who know about this stuff, it's frightening.
The American College of Allergists avow that 50% of all illnesses are caused by polluted INDOOR air. They say that 10 to 12 MILLION Americans suffer from asthma, and that asthma is the SINGLE LARGEST CAUSE of hospital visist by children!
In this age of health and forcing cigarette smokers into near-isolation, The American Lung Association reports that over 29% of all ADULT Americans are cigarette smokers. There are no statistics on kids, because too many kids hide this fact from their parents.
Yet another frightening statistic, according to the World Health Organization, is that FORTY PERCENT of ALL BUILDINGS pose a "serious health hazard" due to indoor air pollution. And, Legionnaire's Disease continues to claim lives each year.
