//Asthma A////rticle: Please summarize this article in one paragraph. Using your own wording explain the link between 9/11 and asthma.// Summary of Lung Article:

The city of New York had to create a program for workers and people who were at ground zero for a special health plan. The problem with debris and things in the air caused requirements for facial wear but workers who were cleaning and working at ground zero just tried to do what they could to stay healthy. The amount of dust in the air during 9/11 had highly trained firefighters and police officers who did not have facial protection stopping at hardware stores and picking up utility masks. The only official masks that they did have ran out of air too quickly and were most of the time not even on right so they did without them, but them didn't know that every day they spent working there would increase their chances of getting asthma. It was suspected that dust clouds caused the asthma cases but the workers still had to do their jobs and didn't worry about the risk.
