Since 2024 expectant mothers have been offered a vaccine from 28 weeks to protect newborns and research shows it works - giving ‘excellent protection’ 🥰
Asthma + Lung UK@asthmalunguk

The RSV (respiratory syncytial virus) vaccine has reduced hospital admissions of babies by more than 80%. Karen Spillett, deputy head of health advice at Asthma + Lung UK said: “Asthma + Lung UK campaigned hard for the RSV vaccine to be rolled out to vulnerable groups. We are very glad that these vaccines are making a big difference in protecting young babies from becoming severely unwell." “It is important to stress that RSV is usually harmless. Like most other colds and viruses, it starts with a blocked or runny nose, and in most cases, can be treated at home." Read more from the @BBCNews here: bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Hayfever is SO debilitating for so many people so this will be a welcome addition to conventional treatments. Brilliant to speak to @itvnews @harriet_emma14 yesterday on behalf of @asthmalunguk about the difference this will make for the 27,000 people allergic to birch pollen.

Today is #CleanAirDay! Here at Asthma + Lung UK we have been all over the country fighting for your right to breathe clean air. But despite all our hard work over the last 12 months air pollution remains one of the most significant environmental risks to public health in the UK.

Today is #WorldAsthmaDay! Summer isn’t always an easy season when you have a lung condition. Things like hay fever and hot weather can make breathing more difficult and stop you doing the things you love. This summer we want to inspire you with ways to achieve your goals ☀️

Air pollution is a public health emergency that affects us all – it's a relief to see the expansion is having a positive impact on Londoners. However, there are no safe levels of air pollution the government must commit to an ambitious Clean Air Act. tinyurl.com/ycx9uf88

Sex hormones play a powerful but often overlooked role in asthma. This @PJOnline_News piece dives into the science behind their impact. Great to see our asthma is worse for women report referenced and @samtwick highlighting the crucial research. Read the article⬇️

Funding for lung health research is on life support - it's time to do things differently. It was great to work with @OpenAccessGov on what more we can all do. There is hope on the horizon if we properly fund research.

Our CEO @_SarahSleet was on @BBCBreakfast today responding to research from @KingsCollegeLon about a clinical trial that has found a new way of treating serious asthma and COPD attacks. This could be a game-changer for people with lung conditions.

A study from @LeicResearch has used AI to analyse patient urine samples and predict when symptoms of COPD will flare up. This innovative test will help people manage their condition before it gets worse and could support people to stay well. independent.co.uk/news/health/co…

Your risk of ending up in A&E doubles in winter if you have a lung condition. @asthmalunguk is here to help you to stay well, however, everyday people with lung conditions are needlessly suffering and without urgent action more lives will be put at risk.
