World Asthma Day 2012 - Asthma still claiming one life a week in Ireland.
World Asthma Day takes place on the first Tuesday of May every year. In 2012 to mark World Asthma Day the Asthma Society of Ireland is highlighting the fact that asthma still claims one life a week in Ireland and we are launching our asthma emergency information pack, which includes an asthma attack card, and poster, a mobile website with the 5 step rule 'What to do during an asthma attack', and an infographic image illustrating the 5 Step Rule which you can save directly to your phone.
We have also launched a radio campaing raising awareness of asthma deaths and calling on asthma patients to contact our Adviceline for more information, and to order or download their asthma attack card.
