How does pneumonia affect the circulatory system?
CopD can affect this system because the lungs can't take in as much oxygen so air can't go to the organs that need them. In other words, CopD can contribute to a lot of things but can't when there is not enough air. Many people have CopD and it is becoming more common. To me, CopD is becoming more common because people smoke and as much as smoking is common, that too is also becoming more common. I hope that I clearly answered this question. Thank you.
