Abstrakt: | Background: People living in Australian cities face increased mortality risks from exposure to extreme air pollution events due to bushfires and dust storms. However, the burden of mortality attributable to exceptional PM Methods: For this health impact assessment, we obtained data on daily counts of deaths for all non-accidental causes and ages from the Australian National Vital Statistics Register. Daily concentrations of PM Findings: Over the 20-year study period, we estimated 1454 (95 % CI 987, 1920) deaths in the major Australian cities attributable to exceptional PM Interpretation: Exposure to exceptional PM Competing Interests: The authors declare the following financial interests/personal relationships which may be considered as potential competing interests: Lucas Hertzog reports financial support was provided by Healthy Environments and Lives (HEAL) Network - 10.13039/501100000925National Health and Medical Research Council Special Initiative in Human Health and Environmental Change (Grant No. 2008937).
