CDC Supports Bleeding Disorders Awareness

"On March 1st, staff from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Division of Blood Disorders donned red ties in a show of support for the first-ever Bleeding Disorders Awareness Month™.
"Bleeding Disorders Awareness Month," was recently approved by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) as a National Health Observance in March. This new health observance formalizes and expands upon the event designated by President Ronald Reagan exactly 30 years ago as "Hemophilia Awareness Month." This special month aims to bring together people with all inherited (conditions that run in families) bleeding disorders to raise awareness of these rare conditions and their potential health problems.."
