There are several types of allergies – respiratory (such as allergic rhinitis and bronchial asthma), cutaneous (eczema and contact dermatitis), dietary or concerning medication – and there are also allergic reactions to vaccines, presently in focus apropos the allergic reactions to vaccines against COVID-19 . If you have already been diagnosed with an allergic disease and have doubts, if you have questions about possible allergies that affect your life and want to know what to do, get advice from the immune-allergists of Hospital da Luz network, who will perform free screenings by video call, between the 5th and 9th April. Allergic diseases have high incidence in the general population, affecting all age groups, and may compromise largely the quality of life. This Hospital da Luz initiative is destined to all those, with or without a diagnosis of allergic disease, as explains Luís Miguel Borrego, the director of the Immunology Service from Hospital da Luz Lisboa, and associate professor with aggregation to the NOVA Medical School: “Talk to us in this video free screening: we will be able to identify if you are or not affected by allergies, and we will give you adequate counselling”. Enrol now and participate in these Hospital da Luz screenings! Date and time: 5 to 9 April, from 9.00 a.m. to 6.00 p.m. Scheduling: via MY LUZ or by phone 217 104 532
