28 June to 4 July 2020: 

This week is World Allergy Week (28 June to 4 July 2020), a global campaign of the World Allergy Organisation (WAO), which aims to raise awareness of the impact of allergy in our communities. Whilst the global focus for this year's World Allergy Week was changed from Anaphylaxis to COVID-19 and Allergy, ASCIA is focusing on both of these areas in 2020. 

In 2020 all ASCIA anaphylaxis resources and e-training courses have been reviewed and updated, and some new resources have been developed. This includes the recently updated ASCIA Guidelines for the Acute Management of Anaphylaxis, which are now on the ASCIA website www.allergy.org.au/hp/papers/acute-management-of-anaphylaxis-guidelines    To view all ASCIA anaphylaxis resources and courses available go to www.allergy.org.au/hp/anaphylaxis
