I need a bit more clarification to

> .. risk of anaphylactic shock with allergy drops is incredibly low. The literature cites that risk as 1/billion or 1/100 million which is thankfully very low. Indeed, in 30 years of using allergy drops there has never been a documented reaction that caused a death.

Can you point me to the specific literature? The reason I am asking as the Asthma & Allergy Foundation of USA states 1 in 50 for anaphylaxis (not the allergy drops). That discrepancy is an incredibly large number. (https://www.aafa.org/anaphylaxis-in-america/)
