Study Summary
The purpose of this study is to look at air quality in cabs and see if the air quality inside taxi cabs is connected to increased risks for lung and heart health problems. Another purpose of the study is to see if putting an air filter inside the car may help improve the air quality and lower health risks. This is important because air pollution can be harmful to health. Air pollution is made up of very tiny particles (things) floating in the air around us, called particulate matter. Particulate matter is made up of dust, smoke, dirt, and gas fumes and can get into our bodies as we breathe. It has been linked to risk for lung cancer and heart disease. It is important because taxi drivers spend many hours of their day inside their cars. The investigators hope that this study will help them find out if using air filters inside cabs will help lower the levels of pollution in cabs and reduce its effects on the health of taxi drivers. They will use these results to educate the taxi driver community.
