Parents are being warned by a charity that their children are at increased risk of triggering a serious condition when they return to school after the holidays. Children will be heading back to class next week after the summer break.
And new figures have revealed that youngsters returning to school could be four times more likely to end up in hospital as a result of asthmas in September compared to August, reports BirminghamLive.
The analysis from NHS Digital data showed that 435 youngsters were sent to hospital with asthma in August in 2018. That rose to 1,795 the following month as kids returned to the classroom. Charity Asthma + Lung UK said that children can be exposed to more triggers when they return to school.
