Figures
Relative risk of asthma ED visits following days with a) thunderstorms [•], b) thunderstorms in combination with rainfall (in 4 categories) [▲], and c) thunderstorms in combination with wind speed from maximum 5-second wind gusts (in 3 categories) [■], compared to days with no thunderstorms. Relative risks and p-values are presented for each model result.
