Why speed matters in peak pollen months
-
Seasonal pollen drives spikes in allergic rhinitis and allergic conjunctivitis; up to 60 million U.S. residents are affected annually. Climate change is lengthening seasons and increasing pollen loads, compounding symptoms and costs. CDC on pollen & health.
-
Fast turnaround means patients can move from identification to treatment during active pollen windows instead of waiting weeks.
