This Halloween, Stay One Step Ahead – Louise Bannon Echoes WHO’s Thrombosis Message
Louise Bannon, Director of Membership, Marketing and External Relations of ISTH, shared a post by the World Health Organization on LinkedIn:
”Did you know thrombosis is also a noncommunicable disease (NCD)?
Blood clots can affect anyone. Know the signs, symptoms, and risk factors so you can protect your health and take action early.
Stay informed, stay aware, and put prevention first. Happy Halloween.”
Quoting the World Health Organization’s post:
”Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), like heart disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory diseases, and cancers, are some of the world’s silent killers.
This Halloween, stay one step ahead – don’t let tobacco, alcohol, air pollution, or physical inactivity sneak up on you.”

Keep up with Hemostasis Today.
