They worried about pollution in the air. would it give them pains in their chests and throats?
They worried about being hurt in a car accident, killed in a plane crash, getting sick, and so on.
All they could think about was being ill or hurt.

“We’ll need some food,” Pearl said.
“We’ll buy some bananas,” June said. “They are good to eat and always clean.”
