• Abstract: Abstract:The study described in this manuscript analyzed the effects of quarantine and socialdistancing policies implemented due to the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on airpollution levels in four western megacities: São Paulo in Brazil; Paris in France; and Los Angelesand New York in the United States. The study investigated the levels of four air pollutants—Carbonmonoxide (CO), Ozone (O3), Fine Particulate (PM2.5) and Nitrogen dioxide (NO2)—during the monthof March 2020, compared to 2015–2019, in the urban air of these metropolitan areas, controlling formeteorological variables. Results indicated reductions in the levels of PM2.5, CO and NO2, withreductions of the latter two showing statistical significance. In contrast, tropospheric ozone levelsincreased, except in Los Angeles. The beneficial health effects of cleaner air might also help preventdeaths caused by the epidemic of COVID-19 in megacities by diminishing pressure on hospitals andhealth equipment. Future actions for the re-starting of non-essential economic activities in thesecities should take into consideration the overall importance of health for the individual, as well asfor societies
