@ruima I'm reminded that professionals can only help us so far and that https://t.co/0VU5AbpKCw controversially illustrates how parents may need to educate themselves on their child's condition. In my case I had to learn a lot about Type 1 diabetic kids 6 years ago now <3

(There are no new scientific results in this thread, it simply aggregates previously reported results for those not following topic closely.)
@David_Cormack Did you move to the Waikato>? My worst year for Hay fever was when I spent Christmas in the Waikato ๐ญ ... I recommend spending a loooooot of time at, in, or near the beach ๐
@LostArcNZ I can only hope for new medical treatments being the end point for COVID in NZ. And I hope the NZ govt can keep everyone calm and working so that society doesn't collapse in the meantime! ๐ญ
