> Asthma and Allergies
May is asthma and allergy awareness month and Community Health Charities
joins members American Lung Association and the Asthma and Allergy
Foundation of America in raising awareness of the seriousness of asthma
and allergies.
Allergic disease, including allergic asthma, is the country's most
common and costly illness. Approximately 38 percent of all Americans
suffer from some sort of allergic condition. Allergies are the most
frequently reported chronic condition in children, limiting activities
in more than 40 percent of these children. An estimated two million
school days are lost each year due to allergies, with an indirect cost
reaching $4 billion.
