New app AirAllergy

AirAllergy launches its new mobile app! Follow pollen levels in real time, consult daily readings and RMI forecast maps for the coming days.

In brief

The grass pollen season (Poaceae) remains at a high level. During this period, the critical threshold of 50 grains/m³ is frequently exceeded, particularly on warm and dry days. Allergic individuals to this pollen type may experience symptoms and are advised to follow their treatment and take the necessary measures to limit their exposure.

 

It is also worth noting that the chestnut trees (Castanea) are currently in bloom. However, their pollen causes allergic reactions in the general public only to a limited extent.

Good to know

  • A few useful recommendations: avoid outdoor activities, wear sun glasses, do not dry linen outside, rinse your nose regularly, wash your hair before going to sleep.

  • Typical allergy symptoms such as runny nose, cough or shortness of breath (in case of asthma) can easily be mistaken for a cold, flu or coronavirus infection. However, fever and body aches should be given special attention as they might be caused by viral infection. It is recommended to call your general practitioner in case of doubt.

  • The standardized pollen detection technique allows retrospective measurement of the levels from samples taken the day before. Samples are analyzed manually during the working days by optical microscopy.
