Professor Adam Fox, an allergy specialist at a leading London teaching hospital said: “The high pollen count can have an enormous impact on people, whether it be kids at school (especially those doing exams), or adults, and South East England usually gets the brunt of it. The impact on adults’ cognitive abilities is similar to those found at drink-driving level limits of alcohol. A high pollen count is massively under-recognised in terms of its impact on quality of life and it’s a shame, because there are effective treatments to help.”
