Establishment of Thalassemia Centers in DHQ Hospitals of Punjab
Thalassemia, a genetic condition present from birth, affects hemoglobin levels in the blood, leading to severe anemia for patients. To address this issue, Chief Minister Punjab Ms. Maryam Nawaz has made a significant decision to set up Thalassemia Centers in DHQ Hospitals across Punjab.
Thalassemia Overview
Thalassemia is an inherited disease causing low hemoglobin production in the body, essential for oxygen transport. Regular blood transfusions are crucial to provide healthy hemoglobin to patients. However, the monthly transfusions make treatment costly.
