Teachers and health care workers, particularly those who are unionized, generally have decent health insurance and might therefore be more likely to be diagnosed. I would guess that not only gardeners and florists but farm laborers and those who work in earth-moving, such as road building and mining, would be less likely to be diagnosed and/or treated.

Yes @tcd518 tgere is the issue of access to healthcare. But lack of aware of Bronchiectasis as a chronic lung disease is missing although next to COPD and asthma, it is often mentioned in medical journals and on medical websites.
