Copyright © Steven Fielding 2014. You may share this work for non-commercial purposes only, provided you give attribution to the copyright holder and the publisher, and provide a link to the Creative Commons licence. 6 The Televised Crisis The Clangers was a children’s animated television series featuring what their creator Oliver Postgate described as ‘a small tribe or extended family of civil mouse-like persons living their peaceful lives on, in and around a small, undis- tinguished moon’. They were ‘plump and shocking pink, with noses that were long, perhaps for sucking up … soup’.1 Originally broadcast on BBC One during 1969–72, the series was repeated many times thereafter. On the night of 10 October 1974 the BBC showed a special episode, ‘Vote for Froglet’, one designed for grown-ups, in which the narrator informs the Clangers that ‘the proudest moment of the British people [is] a parliamentary election’. The purpose of the episode was, however, not to celebrate the state of democracy on the day the country went to the polls. Postgate had something he wanted to get off his chest. The grandson of George Lansbury, who led the Labour party during 1932–5, Postgate was from a left-wing bohemian family. Yet, as the post-war period developed, he came to believe that ‘the prospect of a just and loving social order based on the principles of true socialism’, for which his grandfather and parents had worked, would not materialize.

    A vulnerability-based approach to human-mobility reduction for countering COVID-19 transmission in London while considering local air quality Manu Sasidharan1*+, Ajit Singh2, 3*+, Mehran Eskandari Torbaghan4*, Ajith Kumar Parlikad1 1Department of Engineering, University of Cambridge, CB2 1PZ, United Kingdom 5 2School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of Birmingham, Edgbaston, Birmingham, B15 2TT, United Kingdom. 3Institute of Applied Health Research, University of Birmingham, Edgbaston, Birmingham, B15 2TT, United Kingdom. 4Department of Civil Engineering, School of Engineering, University of Birmingham, Edgbaston, 10 Birmingham, B15 2TT, United Kingdom. *Correspondence to: [email protected] (M.S.); [email protected] (A.S.); [email protected] (M.E.T.) + Equal contribution 15 1 20 Abstract An ecologic analysis was conducted to explore the correlation between air pollution, and COVID- 19 cases and fatality rates in London. The analysis demonstrated a strong correlation (R2>0.7) between increment in air pollution and an increase in the risk of COVID-19 transmission within London boroughs. Particularly, strong correlations (R2>0.72) between the risk of COVID-19 25 fatality and nitrogen dioxide and particulate matter pollution concentrations were found. Although this study assumed the same level of air pollution across a particular London borough, it demonstrates the possibility to employ air pollution as an indicator to rapidly identify the city’s vulnerable regions. Such an approach can inform the decisions to suspend or reduce the operation of different public transport modes within a city. The methodology and learnings from 30 the study can thus aid in public transport’s response to COVID-19 outbreak by adopting different levels of human-mobility reduction strategies based on the vulnerability of a given region.
