Asthma Capitals for 2007 have been named: Atlanta #1
Each year the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America names the Top Ten Asthma Capitals for the year. This year, Atlanta Georgia, took the top spot, with Philadelphia, PA, and Raliegh, NC, second and third.
The Asthma and Allergy Foundation says:
Don’t Move - Improve: Experts agree that people can’t move away from their asthma since every city in America has a variety of risk factors.
