● Every year on 17th April 'World Hemophilia Day' is observed all over the world.
● This day was started in 1989 to bring awareness about 'Hemophilia'. Ever since, World Hemophilia Day is observed every year on April 17, the birthday of Frank Schnabel, the founder of the World Federation of Hemophilia (WFH).
● The theme of the day for the year 2023 is “Access for All: Prevention of bleeds as the global standard of care”.
● Hemophilia disease was first detected when the descendants of Queen Victoria of Britain started coming under the grip of this disease one after the other. Due to the fact that many members of the royal family were suffering from hemophilia, it was called the 'royal disease'.
● Humans suffering from this disease lack the factor that makes blood clotting. As a result, if such a person gets even a small wound, then blood flows continuously from it and in the end he dies. If there is any wound on the body, blood bleeds for 5-7 minutes and does not stop for a long time is called hemophilia. ओपन / कमेंट
