Paul Patrick: Only 0.04% of the 40 million registered global blood stem cell donors are Indian
Paul Patrick, CEO at DKMS BMST Foundation India & MD at DKMS Life Science Laboratory India, made the following post on LinkedIn:
“Only 0.04% of the 40 million registered global blood stem cell donors are Indian.
The unrelated marrow donor program is in the beginning stage in low and middle-income countries due to
- Lack of government support programs
- Lack of awareness
- Myths and Misconceptions about Blood Stem Cell Donation
I’m grateful to be at the 28th APBMT Group Meeting in Semarang, Indonesia, where the opening ceremony was truly unforgettable and had excellent discussions.
I feel blessed to have a presentation on the Unrelated marrow donor program, having
Donor Centre Challenges.
- Legal Regulations
- Socio-economic Factors
- Financial Constraints
- Health infrastructure
- Legal Regulations
The solution to the fight against Blood Cancer
Making people aware
Increasing the Donor Database and retaining it
Addressing prevailing myths and employing tailored strategies
What do you think about the solution to fight against Blood Cancer?”
