When is World Hemophilia Day?
Monday April 17thWORLD HEMOPHILIA DAY
World Hemophilia Day is always observed on April 17. World Bleeding Disorders Awareness Day is also known as World Bleeding Disorders Awareness Day. The day's aim is to identify and reach out to new members of the bleeding disorders community.
Hemophilia is a bleeding disorder. People with hemophilia do not bleed any faster than average, but they do bleed longer than average. Their blood does not have enough clotting factors, according to their blood. Clotting factor is a protein in blood that controls bleeding. About 1 in 10,000 people are affected by the disease.
Since hemophilia is a genetic disorder, it is usually inherited, implying that it is passed on through a parent's genes. Genes are a source of information about how the body's cells will develop as a baby grows into an adult. For example, they determine a person's hair and eye color.
Light a lamp in your house, office, or even a local landmark red to honor those with a bleeding disorder and raise funds for World Hemophilia Day.
