*The conditional logistic regression model fits the pollutant(s) as unconstrained distributed lags 0–2 and adjusts for, the weekly RCGP influenza-like illness consultation rates per 100 000 England and Wales population, two natural cubic splines (df=5) for temperature (mean lag 0–1 and mean lag 2–6), public holidays and a sine/cosine annual cycle.
†Pollutant metrics: daily mean PM2.5, daily mean PM10, daily maximum 1-hour NO2, daily maximum 8-hour mean O3.
