Hospital admissions for allergy and anaphylaxis begin to increase following COVID-19 pandemic
New figures published on 22nd September 2022 by NHS Digital show an increase in hospital admissions for allergy and anaphylaxis for March 2021 to March 2022.
Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, admissions for allergy and anaphylaxis had steadily increased from 2013 onwards.
In contrast, last year’s figures showed a dramatic decline. This was thought to be for a number of possible pandemic-related reasons.
For children aged 18 and under there has been a 16.8% increase in allergy and anaphylaxis admissions on 2020-2021.
For adults aged 19 and over, there has been a 15.6% increase in allergy and anaphylaxis admissions on 2020-2021
