These are the days of ragweed, not because they are happy days, but because for many citizens of the province of Varese and a large part of Lombardy are days of pain and suffering. Allergy to this terrible pest, a shrub that comes to be high up to five feet, inflorescence with yellow pollen spreads billion for each plant.
An electron microscopic pollen that looks like a sea urchin, and very irritating, that primarily affects the respiratory tract, but also eyes and ears, with a sense of prurutio the palate and wheezing in the breath. I have read
several articles in recent days, have also been interviewed about it, but I find that in many cases, emeritus fellow politicians have done a lot of confusion and mistakes in communication tacky, so that also lead people to believe that the non-mowing neighbor Home is the reason why an entire region suffers.
He said inter alia that castle there is 15 percent of allergy sufferers: I would say that in reality there are many more, this is the percentage that is detected by clinical history, the confirmed cases, while many of most are mild cases, which indicated a temporary chill in the reason for a continuous drip of the nose. In my opinion
allergic are at least 25% of the population of these lands. There are hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions, people with allergies. If the people involved are about 6 million, it means that at least 1 million-odd are allergic.
What should be done to eliminate this scourge? In all honesty, at this point the adventure is really hard, without a coordinated plan and concrete containment of ragweed invasion. Why? For the characteristics of this plant and the basin of the Po Valley.
The climate of the plains become the optimal environment for the proliferation of this pest. Pollen can be transported tens of kilometers away from the wind, and that is why their on windy days it becomes more difficult to resist its devastating action.
One solution would be to resume large-scale what has been done long ago in Turbigo, paying farmers to fallow fields arassero and off from May to August. But above all we need to go to attack the airbase at Malpensa, the heath where ragweed is born, lives and prolific in industrial quantities and no one would dream of going to remove the weed.
should also be mowing the grounds at all areas of railways and rural roads, where the eyelashes lovingly welcome ragweed. It is important that all who sight, from May to August, eradicate or counter to the municipalities.
Need for coordinated action at the level of municipalities, provinces region and above, who undertake to eliminate as much as possible, at least for a year, this scourge.
But I think there are also those who expect to go on. More than a million tablets a day antihistamine represent a slice of cake to share, are millions of euro for pharmaceutical companies.
Perhaps it is time that the local and regional health is heard for what it really should be its role in protecting the health of citizens, not to defend the economic interests of a few.
It would also be the case that the same people you did feel more strongly and decisively, even to defend their rights when the representatives of the institutions are not willing or may intervene.
A warm thoughts to all people with allergies by one of them.
