Is the increasing number of allergy sufferers a cause for concern?

Depending on what we are, the answers may well vary, and they all make sense, but in my view, the increase in allergy sufferers is becoming a social concern. Now let me explain the details.     

First, allergies cause intense and sometimes life-threatening symptoms, which seriously affect the quality of life of many people. So, they put a larger strain on healthcare systems in turn. In addition, many people with allergies need to avoid certain foods and places, which can make it difficult for them to eat out, travel, and participate in other activities.     

Next, I understand some may argue that the increasing trend is due to better diagnosis and reporting, so the real number of allergy cases hasn’t increased. Certainly, this has a point, as medical knowledge and testing methods have improved. Yet, we must not underestimate the danger of allergies unless there is compelling counterevidence.           

Therefore, even though we need more research to understand about allergies, we should not overlook the increase in allergy sufferers. Rather, we should see it as a serious concern for society and the economy. Thank you for your attention. [185 Type-Q]
