Thalassemia is a rare condition, and for that reason, there are very few opportunities for communication and interaction between patients, which intensifies doubts, fears, isolation and prejudice. With the pandemic, these feelings can certainly be enhanced.
Thinking about the positive impact of the 1st edition, in the context of socialization and, mainly, the value of exchanging experiences and ideas, Abrasta, in partnership with Thalassemia International Federation, will hold the 2nd virtual meeting among thalassemia patients from different countries.
The participants will have an opportunity to meet other people with the same condition and share their individual experiences of living with thalassemia. They will also be invited to speak about relationships, work, challenges and achievements. This virtual meeting will facilitate the possibility of coming together as a group and it will also provide an opportunity to form new friendships.
The event will run for 4 hours on May 14 and will offer simultaneous translation to English, Spanish and Portuguese.
