Research conducted by Dr Shirin Al Suwaidi, Assistant Professor of Allergy and Immunology in Internal Medicine at UAE University, suggested that more than one-third of adults in the UAE suffer from allergic rhinitis and among the different types of allergies, inhalant allergies are by far the most common allergy. The main sources of air pollution in the Middle East are natural sources, pollutants such as sand, dust mites and sea salt. The other sources are occurred due to human activities such as transport and industries.
