Health Disparities in Allergy, Asthma and Immunologic Diseases (New Webinar)

Free Webinar July 16, 2024 | 12 PM ET
Asthma and allergy treatment has seen remarkable innovation in the last 25 years, but this progress is still not reaching everyone. More than 25 million Americans have asthma and 50+ million have allergies. These conditions disproportionately impact Black, Hispanic/Latino and Native American communities. Social, economic, and environmental factors often play a key role in causing asthma and allergy disparities. Join us as we explore disparities in allergy, asthma and immunologic diseases and how to best help under-resourced communities.
