Every minute counts: EAACI calls for urgent action to make schools safe for children at risk of anaphylaxis

ZURICH, April 28 (Bernama) -- Children at risk of anaphylaxis are still not consistently protected in schools, despite clear medical guidance.

That was the warning delivered at the Spanish Congress of Deputies during the event “Every minute counts: promoting anaphylaxis-safe schools”, where the Spanish Association of People with Food and Latex Allergies (AEPNAA), the Spanish Society of Allergology and Clinical Immunology (SEAIC), the Spanish Society of Pediatric Clinical Immunology, Allergology and Asthma (SEICAP), and the European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (EAACI) endorsed a joint manifesto calling for stronger safeguards in school settings.
