World Thalassemia Day 2024:
History, Theme, Message & Wishes Poster

May 8th is set aside as a day to help people with thalassemia, a blood disorder, live normal lives by eradicating common misconceptions about it. On this day topic discussed is the stigma that society imposes on the lives of those who suffer from this condition. Medical professionals who help patients and advance the discipline are also recognized on this day for their contributions.

World Thalassemia Day Objective

The objective of the day is to help those who are having difficulty managing their sickness. According to World thalassemia day, World Thalassemia Day is a day of remembrance for all thalassemia patients and their parents who, despite the obstacles the disease provides, have never given up hope for a better life. It's also a day to honour scientists who have devoted their professional lives to aiding thalassemia sufferers everywhere.

Parents pass this inherited blood disease on to their children and the treatment strategy is based on the kind and severity of thalassemia, which can be brought on by several different conditions. This disease impairs the body's ability to produce haemoglobin and red blood cells. Stated differently, a person suffering from thalassemia disease will have incredibly low levels of red blood cells and haemoglobin. Its effects could range from mild to severe to occasionally lethal. Most people with this illness are of Mediterranean, South Asian, and African descent.

World Thalassemia Day History

According to World Thalassemia Day history​​, The inaugural World Thalassaemia Day was celebrated in 1994, by an organization called the Thalassaemia International Federation (TIF). This foundation was created in 1986 by Mr. Panos Englezos and families from the UK, the USA, Greece, Italy, and Cyprus to support people and families affected by thalassemia worldwide. This day has been set aside in honor of George, the son of Mr. Panos, who passed away from thalassemia. Since then, May 8th has been observed globally as World Thalassaemia Day in an attempt to increase public awareness of the illness and its effects on people and families everywhere.
