Description
Claudia Felicia Pop and a team of co-authors survey self-reported food allergy in Romanian schoolchildren, in two thousand twenty-four. Food allergy rates have risen worldwide in recent decades. Most European countries have such survey data, but Romania did not, so the team sent an online questionnaire to parents in one city.
More than seven hundred families completed the full survey. Just under nine percent reported a food allergy for their child. Cow's milk, strawberry, and egg were the most common triggers named. More than a third of allergic children had needed an emergency visit. The authors found poor sharing of medical details with school staff and call for better education.
