Allergology and the challenges we are facing today

ABSTRACT

The care of patients suffering from allergological disorders is a clinical priority of the Karlsruhe Dermatology Clinic. Previously, the diagnostic focus was on detection of type-IV-sensitisation. However, due to increasing demand, the diagnosis of hymenoptera venom allergies has become a much more prominent issue. The direct impact of recent events on the allergological activity in the Karlsruhe Dermatology Clinic, was, with regard to the clarification on a potential allergy to a Covid 19 vaccine, recently becoming even more noticeable.
