![]() Rare Disease Day HistoryRare Disease Day seeks to raise awareness about uncommon diseases which often lack treatment and accessible drugs. A disease or disorder is defined as rare when it affects less than 1 in 2000 people. This day aims to inform policy makers, public authorities, researchers, and health professionals about the needs of those affected by rare diseases. Typically, there are no available cures for rare diseases. Many often go undiagnosed as well. Rare Disease Day was established in 2008 by the European Organisation for Rare Diseases (EURORDIS). It is observed annually on the last day of February. Top Tweets for Rare Disease Day -Updated
