Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Viral infections can provoke immune alterations, such as increased IgE production and Th2 polarization, that trigger or exacerbate allergic reactions and symptoms.

The analysis

The retrieved literature documents how viral infections (such as SARS-CoV-2 and rhinoviruses) can drive type-2 inflammation, increase IgE levels, and foster pro-allergic immune responses that lead to allergic exacerbations and conditions. Therefore, the claim is supported by the evidence.
