This may be the hottest day of the year so far in the UK. Could also be the highest levels of pollen, even with anti-histamine and nasal spray I am struggling #hayfever
Air filters in classrooms reduce sick days by more than 10 per cent.
Putting air filters in classrooms seems to boost student attendance, which may be due to them reducing levels of air pollution, pollen, pathogens or all three.
School attendance increased by 1.3 days per pupil per year when five elementary schools in Milan introduced air filters into classrooms, in the first randomised controlled trial of its kind.

One to read and then bookmark if you suffer from hay fever. Purified sea water spray and Loratadine work for me, and are relatively cheap, at least in the UK.
The pollen today can really fuck off though
Really feeling it today, the air feels thick and my eyes twitch, this is after the anti-histamines as well.

If you have #HayFever, you'll already know what works for you. Be prepared!
Good morning tooters. It’s around 10-11c this morning but will end up at a lovely sunny & clear 24c. We need some rain, I will need water the garden again today.
I slept in again today, I’m very glad the daylight savings finishes this weekend. Hope everyone is well this #Friday morning. I seem to still have hay-fever after being in the garden for a while again yesterday. I was sneezing as I went to bed last night & the first thing I did when I woke was to sneeze. I feel fine, it’s just my eyes & nose. Annoying more than anything
. I need to get a new attachment for my hose as it has sprung a leak right up near the nozzle end. I also need to unwind the whole hose as there’s a dribble down than end as well. A job for this afternoon. I will also be buying pjs for my other 2 grandkids now that I have the sizes. Even the 13yr old is happy for me to choose pjs for her. First up today though is a Les Mills Thrive class, get my lungs working, then I’m off out for a hour or so.
Have a great #Friday people, hope it’s a good one. Stay safe out there . #HereComesTheWeekend #Weather #Exercise #HayFever
Observation re hay fever: I moved into a smaller apartment in November, and I took the air purifier with me.
Now, inside my place, I rarely have any hay fever symptoms. So much so that I forget about it, and when I then go outside, it hits me quite hard.
Two learnings:
1. those things work really well! I think I hadn't noticed before bcs the old place was too big.
2. always take antihistamines with me

The hazels are blooming! I know, because after breathing unfiltered outside air for only 20 minutes I want to claw my face off. Instead of giving Big Pharma lots of $$$ for antihistamines and eyedrops, I can just wear my respirator. So I wore my respirator on my walk to the supermarket and inside the supermarket.
I'm beyond happy it's sunny outside and trees are starting to look pretty and everything, but I am so not ready to sneeze every other minute and have itchy eyes :(
