Only 4 French people out of 10
Unfortunately, “only 4 out of 10 French people apply this simple and yet essential advice at home, a proportion which drops to just 33% at work where ventilation is just as essential”, laments Asthma and Allergies.
The reason? “Even if the French identify the allergens responsible for respiratory allergies rather well (mites, pollen, etc.), few make the link between allergy and indoor air…” explains Dr. Marc Sapène, pulmonologist and president of the Asthma & Allergies. “Some therefore suffer severe symptoms for a long time without reacting, nighttime cough or red eyes for example.”
On the occasion of National Allergy Day this March 16, a chat will allow Internet users to ask allergists all their questions from 1 p.m. to 7 p.m. Do not hesitate to consult the website www.entreprises-interieur.org to find out more on the subject.
Note: In 20 years, the number of people with allergies has doubled and the WHO estimates that 50% of the world population will be affected by at least one allergic disease in 2050.
