World Hemophilia Day

The World Hemophilia Day 2017 is celebrated to raise awareness about hemophilia, a bleeding disorder. A small nick in the finger while cutting vegetables may be a very minor incident for many people, however it can be tragic for a person affected with hemophilia. This is a genetic disorder that is characterized by the absence of the clotting factor in the blood, which leads to uncontrolled bleeding in the event of an injury or cut.
