The findings complement nationwide prevalence surveys of atopic diseases in children and adolescents in Germany. Knowledge about temporal variations in risk of atopic diseases are crucial for future investigations of explanatory factors to enhance the development of preventive measures. While asthma incidence followed a declining trend throughout the study period, an unprecedentedly strong reduction in pediatric asthma risk was observed in 2020, the first year of the COVID-19-pandemic.
