7 Stats You Should Be Concerned About Children’s Health
The numbers don’t lie, today’s kids are facing a crisis we can’t ignore.
1️⃣ 40% of U.S. children live with at least one chronic illness.
2️⃣ 1 in 5 kids are obese, putting them at higher risk for diabetes and heart disease.
3️⃣ Asthma affects 6+ million children, making classrooms a daily health challenge.
4️⃣ Childhood cancer is up 40% in recent decades.
5️⃣ Indoor air can be 2–5x more polluted than outdoor air, kids spend 90% of their time indoors.
6️⃣ 25% of students have untreated vision problems that directly affect learning.
7️⃣ Poor air quality increases respiratory risks by up to 78% in children.
These aren’t just numbers, they’re barriers to learning, growth, and childhood itself.
Schools and childcare programs can make a difference NOW. From real-time air quality monitoring (AirGradient) to air purification (Halo HEPA & INVZBL® N-Air), UV-C disinfection (INVZBL®), and early vision screening (Plusoptix), the tools to protect children are already here.
DON’T WAIT. The longer we delay, the more children miss out.
