World Arthritis Day 2015
Category
World Arthritis DayAbout This Project
Painful and debilitating, arthritis affects one in five people in the Middle East.
Contrary to popular belief, the chronic disease does not only occur in the elderly. Children and teenagers are also susceptible, with the most severe forms occurring mostly in younger people, and the average age of onset between 40 and 60 years.
Support for them comes in the shape of the Middle East Arthritis Foundation, which is raising awareness of the condition for World Arthritis Day on October 12th.
