What To Expect From 'The Worst Allergy Season Ever'

That's right, it's the worst allergy season ever, according to Dr. Jay Portnoy, the Allergy, Asthma & Immunology Division Director at The Children’s Mercy Hospital. On this edition of Up To Date, we discuss what to expect and how to find some relief this spring.

When I host Up To Date each morning at 9, my aim is to engage the community in conversations about the Kansas City area’s challenges, hopes and opportunities. I try to ask the questions that listeners want answered about the day’s most pressing issues and provide a place for residents to engage directly with newsmakers. Reach me at steve@kcur.org or on Twitter @stevekraske.
Slow news days are a thing of the past. As KCUR’s news director, I want to cut through the noise, provide context to the headlines, and give you news you can use in your daily life – information that will empower you to make informed decisions about your neighborhood, your city and the region.
