The American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine recently published a new study that shows babies born four months before the peak of the winter virus season were more likely to develop asthma than babies born at any other time of the year.
Why?
Because being born at that time of the year increases the chance of a respiratory infection during infancy, which also increases the chance of asthma.
