The Day is premised on the fact that COPD is among the top chronic lung diseases with high physical, socioeconomic and psychological burden especially in LMICs. Without definitive treatment, primary prevention is extremely critical. In this lecture, we shall discuss the early life origins of COPD and highlight the approaches to prevention.
