AIRCOV project presentation
The AIRCOV project (Impact des Particules Fines sur la COVID-19 : une approche économique) is a research project led by the University of Montpellier. Its aim is to assess whether high exposure to fine particle (PM) pollution increases the risk of death or hospitalization linked to COVID-19.
To achieve this, the project uses anonymized health data from the French National Health Data System (SNDS), covering the period from 2015 to 2021. These data include deaths, hospitalizations, vaccinations and COVID-19 screenings, analyzed at municipal level, by age and gender.
Research is conducted in a secure environment, in compliance with CNIL requirements. Data is stored for 4 years, with a possible 2-year extension, and then deleted.
Data subjects have rights to their data (access, rectification, opposition, deletion, limitation) and may contact the University of Montpellier's Data Protection Officer or the CNIL in the event of a complaint.
