Quantifying the Public Health Impacts of karenia brevis (Florida red tide) Algae Bloom Exposure along Florida's Gulf Coast

Abstract Florida red tide (Karenia brevis) blooms release brevetoxins, potentially impacting respiratory, gastrointestinal, and neurological health. Multiple studies have identified associations between red tide exposure and various health condition, particularly respiratory. However, there remains a need to further elucidate the causal mechanisms underlying these associations and to more precisely estimate the magnitude of their effects. This study aimed to estimate the caus
