Asthma patients 'missing out on basic care' Millions of asthma patients in the UK are not getting basic care they need to manage their condition, a charity says.
Asthma UK, which questioned more than 4,500 patients, said two-thirds miss out on yearly check-ups, tailored advice and lessons in how to use their asthma inhalers.
It says it is a slight improvement on a year ago but remains a bleak picture.
In 2015 in the UK, 1,468 people died from an asthma attack - the highest level in a decade. BBC News
