allergy in their nursery school during the last 1 year.
This figure shows the proportion of children who developed symptoms of
food allergies in their nursery school between April 2015 and February

Among children with accidental ingestion, the incidence of accidental
ingestion is most common in children with allergy to wheat (31.4%),
followed by children with allergy to peanut (18.8%) (p=0.49), allergy
to milk (10.7%) (p=0.019), and allergy to egg (8.6%)
(p<0.001).
All children with treatment-required accidental ingestion received
treatment at a clinic or hospital.
