I’m wondering if you or someone else can point me to some data about the relative difference in risk from allergic reactions to peanuts vs dogs (for example). We certainly hear a lot more about anaphylaxis from food / medicine allergies than we do about dogs or cats. And at the extreme, it seems like everyone I know is mildly allergic to dozens of kinds of tree pollen, but nobody ever freaks out about that. My intuition leads me to believe that some allergies are super popular and not that severe, while others might be more rare and wildly severe.
