Maybe it's really hay fever, Help Find Cause The Hampden Berkshire Tuberculosis and Respiratory Disease Association is going to help you find out whether it's an allergy that's bothering you or something cisc. Starting Aug. 1S, the association will determine the daily pollen count, and let the public know what to expect. Telling the public the count of ragweed pollen granules in. the air is a major educational.
effort of the TV associations in I the Nortneast, according to Jeffrey Wood, Hampden County program consultant. Every morning. the count will be taken at stations at Mercy Hospital Springfield Providence Holyoke, Westfield High School, and Westover Air Force Base Medical Center, Chicopee. Seven Is Mark It will be distributed through the news media. If the count is seven or higher, and you have hay fever, chances ale you will suffer that runny nose, itchy eyes, and sneezing.
The service 18 directed primarily at those who don't know they have hay fever, Wood said. It a person sees the pollen count is over seven, and has those symptoms, he will realize that instead of a summer cold, he has hay fever, an. allergic reaction to ragweed pollen. A Hay fever is a nuisance, but it loft untreated it can get worse, Wind said. About 30 per cont of all hay fever sufferers get asthma, he said.
'The pollen count is part of a two pronged effort of. association to make the public aware of the possibility they have the allergy.

High In Cities He predicted that the count would run higher in urban areas, where the pollen is more likely to be stirred about by traffic, construction, and the larger number of people.
Some medical relict can be given hay fever sufferers, he said. There are nasal sprays which can bring temporary relief, and certain types of injections which can reduce a person's reaction to the pollen. He advised that sufferers or those who think they may have hay fever. consult their family doctors.
