About
UNCOVERING THE RIDDLE OF THE ALLERGY EPIDEMIC
One in five adults suffer hay fever. One in ten children now have a food allergy. Hospitalisations due to anaphylaxis – the most extreme and deadly kind of allergic reaction – are quadruple what they were just two decades ago. In this fascinating special (the second in the
‘Clinic’ series), scores of ordinary people who live with all kinds of allergies – from the rare, to the miserable, to the potentially deadly – meet with leading immunologists, to put their condition under the microscope.
