In brief
Several grass species are in bloom.
Depending on weather conditions, concentrations can still increase in the coming days.
Hayfever sufferers (people sensitized to grass pollen) should follow their practitioner’s recommendations.
Good to know
- 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.
