Nothing new

• 1842 Chadwick linked health to housing
• Black report , late 20th century English House
  Condition Survey etc found -Vulnerable groups,
  including the elderly, the very young and those
  suffering from long-term ill health, are at
  particular risk. These groups also have the
  greatest exposure to many specific hazards due to
  the lengthy periods that they spend indoors.
  People with health problems are
  disproportionately likely to occupy the least
  health-promoting segments of the housing stock, a
  factor that may exacerbate their health problems.
  The Acheson Report, Independent inquiry into
  inequalities in health, specifically recommends
  that policies should be established to improve
  insulation and heating systems in new and
  existing buildings.

WHO

• Healthy housing is a comprehensive concept taking
  into consideration a variety of factors
  contributing to the quality of housing and
  housing environments. Such a concept of "healthy
  housing" covers the provision of functional and
  adequate physical, social and mental conditions
  for health, safety, hygiene, comfort and privacy.
  Still, a healthy home is not a specially designed
  house that is merely a vision, but is also
  represented by a residential setting that is
  capable to fulfil the expectations of the
  residents in respect of safety, comfort and
  hygiene.
