AEON Thailand Foundation recognizes the importance of providing a healthy and safe environment in the hospital, especially amidst the ongoing PM2.5 air pollution crisis, which significantly impacts the well-being and health of the Thai people. The respiratory disease group, dermatitis group, and inflammatory eye disease group have witnessed a surge in patients due to the adverse effects of the crisis. Prolonged exposure to high levels of PM2.5 pollutants in the air can lead to severe health conditions, including cardiovascular disease and cancer. Moreover, the foundation has also extended its support to other hospitals situated in the PM2.5 affected areas.
