The account has now gone viral,…

North India — Delhi especially — is cocooned at this time of the year under a ghostly, familiar shroud as December deepens. There is another, more subtle health calamity associated with heavy, dense fog in London – though the early winter images of the “Great Smog” generally get all the press. It’s not just water vapor; this fog, in the National Capital Region (NCR), here, acts as a physical trap for poisonous pollutants and makes for a polluted “gas chamber” that settles right down at lung level.
