Qatar's Public Health Sector Unites to Fight Against Blood Cancer: Raising Awareness in August
In August, National Blood Cancer Awareness Month, Hamad Medical Corporation and its partners- including the Ministry of Public Health, Primary Health Care Corporation, Qatar Cancer Society, Sidra Medicine, and the National Cancer Program - focus on blood cancers such as leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma. This month aims to highlight the impact of these cancers, educate the public on symptoms like unexplained weight loss and fatigue, and stress the importance of early detection.
While prevention isn't possible, early diagnosis and treatment, including chemotherapy and stem cell transplants, can improve outcomes. HMC and its partners are dedicated to public education and awareness, empowering Qatar's community with vital information for proactive health management.
