Uit de Gezondheidsgids van de Consumentenbond april/mei 2026:
"Groter risico op gordelroos bij COPD
Volwassenen met de chronische longziekte COPD hebben een verhoogd risico op gordelroos, ook wel bekend als herpes zoster.
Dat hebben onderzoekers ontdekt door 22 studies naar COPD en gordelroos samen te
voegen. Patiënten die vanwege hun COPD corticosteroïden gebruiken, lopen nog
meer kans op gordelroos.Gordelroos ontstaat wanneer het waterpokkenvirus, dat iedereen die ooit waterpokken heeft gehad bij zich draagt, weer actief wordt. Gordelroos gaat gepaard met jeuk, pijn en vlekjes en blaasjes aan één kant van het lichaam. Meestal gaat gordelroos na ongeveer twee weken vanzelf over. Soms treden er complicaties op, zoals zenuwpijn. De kans hierop is ook groter bij COPD-patiënten.
Een vaccinatie tegen gordelroos verlaagt de kans op gordelroos en op ernstige complicaties, schrijven de onderzoekers in het tij dschrift European Respiratory Review."

Good news for those of us living with compromised lung function!
London, San Francisco and Beijing are among 19 global cities that have achieved “remarkable reductions” in air pollution, analysis has found, having slashed levels of two airway-aggravating pollutants by more than 20% since 2010.
The analysis found interventions such as cycle lanes, uptake of electric cars and restrictions on polluting vehicles had helped to drive the improvements.
Beijing and Warsaw topped the ranking for cleaning up fine particulate pollution (PM2.5), reducing levels by more than 45%, while Amsterdam and Rotterdam saw the greatest improvement in nitrogen dioxide (NO2), with cuts of more than 40%.

Toxic smoke pollution maximising harm
The government's Forestry Corporation of NSW is still polluting the Bellingen, Gleniffer and Repton area with toxic smoke. Wet piles and the green timber piles are smouldering. After a cocktail of pesticides was applied, the wet piles with green timber were set alight and are left smouldering for days, maximising the toxic smoke pollution over a wide area.
These negative externalities occur when the consumption or production of a commodity (cellulose) causes a harmful effect to a third party.
It appears that the Forestry Corporation and EPA evade or pass responsibility and the many concerned residents ring 000 and overburden the small Gleniffer Bushfire Brigade now...

Toxic smoke pollution maximising harm
The government's Forestry Corporation of NSW is still polluting the Bellingen, Gleniffer and Repton area with toxic smoke. Wet piles and the green timber piles are smouldering. After a cocktail of pesticides was applied, the wet piles with green timber were set alight and are left smouldering for days, maximising the toxic smoke pollution over a wide area.
These negative externalities occur when the consumption or production of a commodity (cellulose) causes a harmful effect to a third party.
It appears that the Forestry Corporation and EPA evade or pass responsibility and the many concerned residents ring 000 and overburden the small Gleniffer Bushfire Brigade now...

Fire-induced health impacts by the Forestry Corporation of NSW Pt 1
The state-owned Forestry Corporation of NSW (FCNSW) is doing ‘Planned Burns’ to the unwanted left-overs after logging and clear felling Tuckers Nob State Forests. The so-called ‘plantations’ or cellulose factory is or was a rich bio-diverse ecosystem before the destruction.
Many residents live in the area and wildlife has moved back into the sprouting desert.The area has been declared a ‘hazard’ and 36 ha are being incinerated. They call it ‘Hazard Reduction’ because they have dried out the microclimate and increased the bushfire risk.
Through a government decision and outmoded management practices every living being with a lung is now being wilfully exposed to toxic smoke from incineration.
It is not bushfire smoke from climate disruption, but an intentional collateral to extracting cellulose from bio-diversity which has to be subsidised by tax payers. This is turning the area and the breathing beings into a sacrifice zone.The air-filled sacs in the lungs, the alveoli are forced to act as a cost-effective vacuum cleaner for forestry’s “Hazard Reduction” fallout, cleaning up their ‘debris’.
There are no health warnings issued. The reduced air quality leads to exposure to bushfire smoke. Fire-induced health impacts lead to mortalities from particulate matter, increased cardio-respiratory hospital admissions and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases.

These particles can remain suspended in the air for extended periods and, owing to their tiny size, can penetrate deep into the lungs when inhaled." > https://theconversation.com/bushfires-in-victoria-how-to-protect-yourself-if-the-air-is-smoky-where-you-live-215789
