Are you worried about your child's food allergies? Professor Adam Fox and Simon Williams from Anaphylaxis UK are here to give you some peace of mind. They explain that fatal anaphylaxis as a result of food allergies is rare and that your child is more likely to be killed in a car accident than to die of their food allergy.
