Southerly: Coming Up For Air, in reply to Bart Janssen,
Yes there are more folks with allergies but it’s a very difficult thing to untangle from other data particularly in the western world. More people are alive who wouldn’t be, we are very good at keeping people alive who would normally have died as a baby,
At last, a rare glimpse at reality.
I have often claimed, without much in the way of evidence, that allergies are mearly the latest health fad. This bit of information fits nicely with something else I often ask when confronted with the latest cure for a disease we have lived with for generations upon generations.
If we keep keeping people alive longer and longer.
a, where are we going to put them and feed them?
b, what kind of diseases are we going to find that have longer gestation periods, or tend to attack bodies over 100 years old?.
c, As organisms die off a natural balance ensues, by keeping people alive longer are we not also keeping diseases alive longer?

I am anthropomorphising here but how would that go down in the human world ?
Having your face on all your parties election hoardings springs to mind.
