The Spin

Narrative A

The evidence clearly demonstrates that living near airports poses serious health risks that require immediate attention to reduce aircraft noise. The structural changes in heart muscle and increased cardiovascular risks can't be ignored, especially given the millions of people affected by airport noise pollution.

Narrative B

This study can't definitively prove causation between high levels of aircraft noise and differences in heart structure and function simply because its findings are observational. Other factors like lifestyle choices, socioeconomic status, and pre-existing conditions may produce these health outcomes.
