Light blue graphic with a dark blue and orange progress ring chart depicting 45%. Beneath an icon of lungs, the text reads "45% of global deaths from COPD were attributable to air pollution in 2023. #WorldCOPDDay"
Both long- & short-term exposure to air pollution can have detrimental health impacts related to COPD. Long-term exposure can lead to the development of COPD, while even short-term exposure can lead to flare-ups & worsen symptoms for people who already have COPD.

Today is #WorldCOPDDay, and November is COPD Awareness Month.
PSI-funded grantees are improving #COPD care through better inhaler use education, Canadian quality-of-care research, and #LongCOVID monitoring.
2.5 million Canadians have been diagnosed with #COPD but thousands more may have it and not know. On #WorldCOPDDay, we call on improved access to spirometry, more research funding, and better access to clinical trials.
"On the way home, he began to cry. The ER had made him feel like he deserved what was happening to him."
It's #WorldCOPDDay, writes @skipscorner.bsky.social.
"But this year, something cruelly ironic is unfolding at the same time."
"The lives of people who smoke are worth more than a lecture."
💬 This #WorldCOPDDay, Mascha van Oers shares her experience of living with COPD, how she manages the condition and the importance of patient involvement in raising awareness and understanding.

As Canada wakes up on this #WorldCOPDDay the #COPDBatonPass is live in Europe about to be passed to the Americas at 8am (to 4pm!) Eastern.

On #WorldCOPDDay, we’re reminded that many chronic diseases still lack effective, personalized treatments. At Delta4, we use computational biotech to uncover new therapeutic opportunities.
It’s #WorldCOPDDay – the theme is “Short of Breath? Think COPD”. Smoking is the main cause of COPD – with an estimated 2.3m people in the UK with the disease. Linda, from Sunderland, is urging people – don’t ignore the warning signs.
Today (19th) is #WorldCOPDDay.
185,000 people in Wales live with COPD, yet care gaps persist:
<2% had spirometry
Only 5.6% referred for rehab
Half decline flu vaccines
COPD is life-threatening. Wales needs action now.
