Asthma Can Be Controlled !
Asthma is one of the most common chronic diseases
among children and youth in the United States. One out
of every ten children has asthma.1 People with low-income, minorities, and
children living in inner cities experience more emergency department visits and hospitalizations than the general population.2 Every
day in America, 40,000 people miss school or work, 30,000 people have an asthma attack,
5,000 people visit the emergency room, and 1,000 people are admitted to the hospital.3
Good asthma control means no missed days
of school or work, no emergency department visits, and no limitations on your daily activities.

music is available on the "Asthma Blues"® CD!
