So a potential 4% increase, worth comparing with the 100% increase from living next to a coal plant https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11301007/A similar study in Korea https://link.springer.com/article/10.1186/s12889-026-26715-8 found "No consistent gradient by residential proximity was observed across sites".
[–] 1970-01-01 4mo ago ↗ The entire state has other clustering incidents. I skimmed the article and this is not mentioned. Very likely something else entirely.https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/28cde0316f5d40eeb45df94...
