WHO to Javadekar: No study shows pollution spares Indians

WHO回应雅瓦德卡尔：没有研究表明污染对印度人网开一面

NAGPUR: The World Health Organization (WHO), a specialized agency of the United Nations working on international public health, has rebuked Union environment minister Prakash Javadekar for stating that there is no link between air pollution and reduced lifespan. “We wish it didn’t kill people but unfortunately it does,” said WHO officials.

纳格浦尔：世界卫生组织(WHO)是联合国专门从事国际公共卫生工作的机构。WHO谴责了印度环境部长普拉卡什·雅瓦德卡尔关于空气污染和寿命缩短之间没有联系的说法。世卫组织官员称：“我们也希望空气污染不会造成民众死亡，但不幸的是，它确实造成了人员死亡。”

The minister, while speaking in the Parliament on Friday, strongly stressed that there was no Indian study to prove the impact of air pollution on public health. Javadekar further told the house not to “create fear psychosis among people”.

雅瓦德卡尔周五在议会发言时，强调没有研究证明空气污染会对公众健康造成影响。雅瓦德卡尔还告诉众议院不要“在民众中间制造恐慌”。

Speaking to TOI from the ongoing COP 25 meet in Madrid, WHO director (public health) Dr Maria Neira asserted that strong scientific evidences show exposure to pollution has a major impact on people’s health.

在马德里举行的第25届联合国气候变化大会上，世卫组织总干事(公共卫生)玛丽亚·内拉博士对《印度时报》表示，强有力的科学证据表明，暴露在污染环境中对人们的健康有重大影响。

“Independent of which methodology is used or what are the estimates, it is urgent to take action because the levels of air pollution in certain cities in India are very high and this is definitely having an impact on the health of citizens. The evidence is available and so are the interventions, the expertise is there and so is the plan of action. We urge the Indian government, which has enormous amounts of expertise and competencies, to do its best in tackling the sources of air pollution and reducing toxc pollutants that citizens are exposed to at the moment,” said Dr Neira.

内拉博士称：“不管采用哪种方法，我们都迫切需要采取行动，因为印度某些城市的空气污染水平非常严重，这肯定会影响到公民的健康。我们敦促印度政府，尽最大努力解决空气污染的问题，减少市民接触到的有毒污染物。”

Also reacting to the minister’s statement was WHO’S Climate Lead Diarmid Campbell-Lendrum. “We have brought together and analysed tens of thousands of studies showing effect of air pollution on health from every population of the world. We are yet to find a study which shows any population, including India, which is immune from the health impacts of air pollution,” he said.

同样对雅瓦德卡尔做出回应的还有世卫组织气候问题负责人迪亚拉德·坎贝尔·伦德鲁姆。他说：“我们收集并分析了成千上万来自世界各地的研究，这些研究表明空气污染会对健康造成影响。我们还没有发现一项研究表明，人类的健康不受空气污染的影响”
