Interestingly, the state-run media and hospitals have been let off the leash to actually discuss this now. Hospitals have been reporting double the average rate of heart attacks since the severe pollution came in. The government also acknowledged the pollution and even furnished accurate data on it, even though standard practice has been to call it a "foggy day" and move on. Turns out, the pollution is scoring a record 750 on a danger index that only goes to 500.
