“how can you say that the reduction in life expectancy is ONLY at the end of their lifespan? I”

Because that’s what the data says.

You are also confusing paediatric asthma with the total population asthma rate.

Paediatric asthma is no different than the adult form except for (a) it sometimes resolves itself spontaneously as a child ages and (b) adult onset has a worse prognosis.

Don’t confuse diagnosis with mortality risk. You also haven’t addressed explaining why Sweden has such a high asthma rate in BOTH paediatric *and* adult populations as both are very similar to each other but yet has one of the lowest gas hob utilization rates in the EU.

"Paediatric asthma i...prognosis."

Weasel words. You attempted to compare two data points that appear to be the same but are actually quite different. You are now attempting to cover up your mistake.

"You also haven’t addressed .. the EU."

Distraction. Irrelevant to the subject under discussion. Any report covering this sort of subject area and scope will inevitably have individual data errors/anomalys in it. It does not mean the report is faulty - it simply shows the real life is both complex and messy.

You have failed to provide anything that suggest that there are fundamental problems with the report. One is left to assume that you are unable to come up with anything.

Your frequent approach of "this does not say what I want so it must be wrong" does you no credit.

I am not prepared to waste more O2 on this, this thread is now closed.
