    Abstract Purpose of review: The interplay of asthma and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in children is yet unknown. The purpose of this review is to determine the interplay of asthma and asthma therapeutics and COVID-19.
    Recent findings: There is no evidence to date that asthma is a risk factor for more severe COVID-19 outcomes, especially in children. There is actually some basis to suggest that children with atopic asthma may be at reduced risk of asthma exacerbations during COVID-19. The impact of asthma therapeutics on COVID-19 outcomes is unclear, but guidance is relatively uniform in recommending that those with asthma remain on current asthma medications. A focus on social determinants of health may be increasingly important during the pandemic and beyond.
    Summary: Asthma in children appears to be more friend, than foe, during COVID-19.

    Abstract There is now level one evidence based on randomized controlled trials that early ingestion of allergenic solids in infancy has a preventive effect against food allergy development. As a result, guidelines now recommend early ingestion of allergenic solids as a means of food allergy prevention. However, guidelines in Canada currently focus this intervention specifically on infants at risk, defined currently as an infant who has a history of atopy such as eczema or food allergy, or who has an immediate family history of atopy. However, this definition fails to account for studies supporting early ingestion as a preventive measure within the broader population. Not all of these risk factors (such as immediate family history of atopy) are consistently supported by the literature to date. Finally, a more universal approach to food allergy prevention simplifies the message, decreases stigmatization, and reduces medicalization of infant feeding. It also has the potential to reduce reticence to feed in infancy. The goal of this commentary is to argue that food allergy prevention guidelines should focus their interventions on the broader population and not just those defined as at higher risk.

    Abstract Objective: Prompt administration of epinephrine is first-line management of anaphylaxis. Although severe anaphylaxis may require more than 1 epinephrine dose, multiple epinephrine device packs may not be necessary for all patients at risk for allergic reactions.
    Data sources: A narrative review was used to describe key considerations to contextualize community epinephrine prescribing.
    Results: Anaphylaxis has a lifetime prevalence of 1.6% to 5.1%. Meeting diagnostic criteria for anaphylaxis is not required for epinephrine treatment of a severe allergic reaction. A "1-2-3" approach to anaphylaxis treatment is important to clearly relay central management steps: promptly administer a first dose of intramuscular epinephrine with proper positioning, and activate emergency medical services if immediate symptom resolution does not occur; consider a second dose of intramuscular epinephrine with consideration of oxygen administration and intravenous fluid if initial epinephrine response is not adequate; and consider a third intramuscular epinephrine dose together with consideration of intravenous fluid support and oxygen for continued lack of appropriate response. Although multiple epinephrine doses may be required to treat severe anaphylaxis, 90% of anaphylaxis cases do not require more than 1 epinephrine dose. A universal requirement for multiple epinephrine devices in patients without a history of anaphylaxis is not cost-effective. Patients without a history of anaphylaxis may be managed without multiple device prescriptions within a patient-preference sensitive paradigm of care.
    Conclusion: Anaphylaxis prevention involves appropriate education to avoid allergen triggers, recognize symptoms of an allergic reaction, rapidly access and administer intramuscular epinephrine, and appropriately activate emergency medical services when needed. For patients with previous anaphylaxis, particularly those who have required more than 1 dose of epinephrine to treat an allergic reaction, possessing multiple epinephrine devices is an important part of managing community anaphylaxis risk.
