The central government's Air Quality Early Warning System for Delhi said Delhi's air quality was likely to remain “very poor” till October 31.

Now experts in Germany and Cyprus say they have estimated the proportion of deaths from coronavirus that can be blamed of the exacerbating effects of air pollution.

An AQI between 0 and 50 is considered 'good', 51 and 100 'satisfactory', 101 and 200 'moderate', 201 and 300 'poor', 301 and 400 'very poor', and 401 and 500 'severe'.

Doctors warn that even those who have had COVID-19 in the past are not out of the woods.

During his tenure as an apex court judge, Justice Lokur had dealt with pollution matter which included the aspect of stubble burning.

The city recorded an air quality index (AQI) of 315 at 11:10 am. The last time the air quality hit such a poor level was in February.

Kejriwal said that if the Delhi government can make efforts to prevent stubble burning, so can other state governments.
