Abstract

Allergic rhinitis (hay fever) and asthma attacks triggered by grass pollen, can regularly affect up to three million Australians. Even moderate levels of airborne grass pollen reduce patient quality of life. Despite the high prevalence, medical and socioeconomic burden of allergic rhinitis and asthma, Australia is one of the few developed countries without a national pollen monitoring program.
