There were approximately 3,800 premature deaths in Croatia attributable to exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) concentrations above the WHO AQ guideline in 2021. PM2.5 can lead to many health issues, such as lung cancer, asthma, and strokes.
Number of premature deaths attributable to short-term exposure to air pollution in Croatia in 2021, by pollutant
* Exposure to PM2.5 concentrations above the 2021 WHO AQ guideline level of 5 µg/m³.
** Exposure to NO₂ concentrations above the 2021 WHO AQ guideline level of 10 µg/m³.
*** Acute exposure to O₃.
Attributable deaths are deaths statistically attributable to exposure to a risk factor, e.g. air pollution. The attribution is based on the evidence from studies for the causal link between a risk factor and a health outcome leading to death. Attributable deaths are considered preventable if their cause can be eliminated.
