People with allergies are less susceptible to viral and oncological diseases.
According to Gadin.Net, according to Sputnik, this was stated by Russian allergist-immunologist Alla Ryzhikh, speaking about diseases that can reduce the risk of infection with COVID-19.
According to him, the reason for the low risk of coronavirus infection in allergic people is that their body has a high background of reagin, ie immunoglobulin E (IgE).
At the same time, the expert noted the similarity of some symptoms of the coronavirus with the manifestations of seasonal allergies.
"If a person does not have a cough and shortness of breath for the first time, it may be a manifestation of an allergic disease aggravated by the onset of the autumn cold," he said.
The doctor advised to consult a specialist to avoid confusion with allergic reactions and coronavirus symptoms.
