However, in haemophilia, these components that help stop bleeding are absent, leading to persistent bleeding that, in some circumstances, can be life-threatening. This includes nose, gum, and joint bleeding after small traumas, as well as bleeding after circumcision or injections. Sometimes blood is detected in the urine or faeces without a known reason. Haemophilia primarily manifests in men and runs in families.  The majority of those who have haemophilia are still undiagnosed, hence the day is devoted to teaching people about the importance of early identification of the condition for better care. This event provides a platform to spread knowledge and educate people about haemo

However, population shifts from rural to urban areas in Latin America and to other parts of the world have altered the epidemiology of Chagas disease and extended its geographic dispersion. Control measures should concentrate on preventing transmission from insect bite, mother to child, and from blood transfusion. This year’s theme promotes universal care and accessibility of resources to those who need it the most. Since primary healthcare is the first line of communication between patients a

Health is more than just the absence of disease or disability; it is a condition of whole well-being in the physical, mental and social aspects of life. This means that health is a resource to support a person's role rather than being a goal in and of itself. We commemorate the World Health Organization's 75th anniversary and take a look back at the public health accomplishments that have enhanced quality of life over the past seven decades as we concentrate on the path to achieving Health For All, which is this year's theme.

It is also a chance to encourage action to address current and upcoming health concerns.  What can you do to commemorate this day? -Participate in health campaigns t
