Comment from the contributor:

From The Long Beach Press Telegram --About 20 million people in the U.S. have Asthma, a problem caused partially by toxic air pollution.

“ It starts with a tickle in the throat. Then comes the coughing. And the wheezing.It feels like someone is pressing against your chest and back.More air is coming in than can be breathed out.Pressure builds and panic sets in.About 20 million people in the United States have asthma, nearly 4 million of them in California. ”
