Abstract
Dr. Howard Rapaport's attack on the report of the Committee on Allergy of the American Academy of Pediatrics is unrealistic; only by the most active cooperation between allergists and other health workers can the large number of allergic children receive needed attention.
His concern runs counter to the advances made in many areas of community medicine. Lay people are taught to administer injections, to take readings of temperature, pulse, and blood pressure. Pediatricians's assistants are increasingly involved in history taking, physical examinations, and prescribing medications.
