World Haemophilia Day in Myanmar

17 April - In Myanmar, an estimated 5,400 people have haemophilia - only about 150 are diagnosed. Together with the Novo Nordisk Haemophilia Foundation (NNHF), Novo Nordisk is conducting a global fundraiser to support people with haemophilia in Myanmar. Susanne Brandl, general manager of the NNHF, explains: “In most countries there is some kind of organisation to support people with haemophilia, but in Myanmar there is no such thing, so we start by establishing a patient organisation, and then we rely on the raised funds to make the association active as quickly as possible. By doing this, we believe that we can definitely make a difference.”  Read more about the Haemophilia Foundation and See the facts about Haemophilia in graphics (pdf)
