Why allergy and asthma?
Unlike many infectious diseases, the prevalence of allergy and asthma has been shown to increase with a country’s improving economic output and technological development. The outlook for allergy and asthma is therefore alarming, and must be addressed in Member States, as well as on a European and global level.
The event is coordinated by:
