Thank you for excellent and important information. Given how readily the public took the bait from those who twisted an allergen theory to promote mass infection, it's important to firmly repeat that harm can follow viral infection. To that end, let's not dismiss the impact of c0v*d on kids.

I'm confused about the use of the term "allergic disease" in this article. Are all immune system diseases "allergic disease"?

No, allergic disease is one kind of immune disease. Much of the early research on the relationship between what kids are exposed to and how the immune system develops was around e.g. hay fever so that is why there is an emphasis on allergic disease.
