    Snippet: The interpretation of these findings has to be necessary cautious, as the virus spread especially in Italy and the United States is still ongoing 68 and is being contained 48 . However, it is remarkable that we obtained consistent significant correlations between air pollution variables and risk factors for COVID-19, despite varying population densities within and between the countries.

    Document: The interpretation of these findings has to be necessary cautious, as the virus spread especially in Italy and the United States is still ongoing 68 and is being contained 48 . However, it is remarkable that we obtained consistent significant correlations between air pollution variables and risk factors for COVID-19, despite varying population densities within and between the countries. By controlling for the number of infections per 100,000 habitants, we found statistically significant, positive correlations between COVID-19 infections and low air quality in each of the three assessed countries.
