Rare Disease Day: Amplifying voices, advocating hope

Abstract

Every year on February 28, the global community comes together to observe Rare Disease Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness and understanding for the millions of individuals who live with rare disorders. While individual rare diseases may seem uncommon, their collective impact is significant, affecting the lives of countless families and communities worldwide. This day serves as a crucial platform to amplify the voices of those affected, advocate for increased research and support, and inspire hope for a future where rare diseases can be prevented, diagnosed earlier, and effectively treated.
