Saudi Arabia has one of the highest rates of thalassemia in the world[2]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br>The disorder leads to anemia and other serious symptoms, such as bone abnormalities and growth deficiencies. Patients living with thalassemia are often required to receive lifelong red blood cell transfusions to support normal growth and development, maintain quality of life and increase life expectancy.[3]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br>The Saudi government has made significant efforts to identify the thalassemia carrier population among other conditions, by introducing a Premarital screening program (currently called Healthy Marriage Program) and also enhancing the disease care in the kingdom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br>However, the disease continues to present a significant burden both on patients and healthcare services, highlighting the ongoing need for continued public awareness and promotion of prevention programs and enhanced access to innovative care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br>Dr. Androulla Eleftheriou, TIF Executive Director said: \u201cDespite the \u2018spread\u2019 of thalassemia at an increasing rate worldwide, public awareness and information about the condition, in addition to concrete and tangible actions by competent healthcare authorities at the local level towards its effective prevention, control, and management, remain significantly limited in many countries. Today we call for the intensification of concerted efforts and collective mobilization by all related stakeholders to change that.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br>Oscar Delgado, General Manager &#8211; Middle East &amp; Africa, Bristol Myers Squibb said, \u201cAt Bristol Myers Squibb, we are proud to help and support the needs of those living with thalassemia in Saudi Arabia.
