Spike in Asthma Healthcare Presentations in Eastern England during June 2021
Thunderstorm asthma is often characterised by a sudden surge in patients presenting with exacerbated symptoms of asthma linked to thunderstorm activity. Here, we describe a large spike in asthma and difficulty breathing symptoms observed across parts of England on 17 June 2021. The number of healthcare presentations during the asthma event was compared to expected levels for the overall population and across specific regions. Across affected geog…
Monitoring epidemiological trends in back to school asthma among preschool and school-aged children using real-time syndromic surveillance in England, 2012–2016

We aimed to describe the timing and magnitude of BTS asthma using surveillance data from different health services in England. METHODS : Asthma morbidity data from emergency department attendances and general practitioner (GP) consultations between April 2012 and December 2016 were used from na…
