The throat that is scratched, the eyes of crying and the blocked nose … what if it were not the flu but … pollen allergies? In the mid -winter, the circulation of these irritating spores is maximum around the Mediterranean.
The National National Aerobiological Surveillance Network issued a surveillance card this Wednesday, February 12. Eight departments are already on red alert: Pyrénées-Orientals, Aude, Hérault, Gard, Vaucluse, Bouche-Du-Rhône, VAR and Alps-Maritimes. The rest of France is on yellow alert, the level just below, an average health impact. “
“Be careful with the polenses of Taxaceae Cupropresídos (Cipreses, Thuyas, juniper) that bother strongly allergic around the Mediterranean with a risk of high -level allergy. They are accompanied by ash powders with an average risk of average allergy,” reports the network of surveillance . It is specified that the mimosas (acacias) are also “in full flowering in the south.”
The rest of the country suffers from a different evil, with a high circulation of hazelnuts and pollen aliens.
The transmission of polenes favored by the climate
Would it be little early for the polenses, in the mid -winter? “The almost spring climate promotes the release of polenses in the air,” explains the body in the social network X. On the contrary, the next potential rain could facilitate life to the allergic by placing powders on the ground.
