According too the Asthma in America Foundation, Asthma is a disease that affects 1 out of 10 kids which is about 5 million kids all together. About 250 American children die each year from asthma attacks. Asthma attacks cause about 14 million missed days of school. When a kid misses school the parent misses work. That could interfere with your economic lifestyle.
